Check out this fascinating film before it hits cinemas, and see why it’s proven such a big talking point on the festival circuit.
Pilar is troubled by her neighbour, Aurora, a lonely, temperamental woman in her 80s who escapes to the casino whenever she has money and believes her maid is practising voodoo against her. On her deathbed, Aurora summons a stranger, Gian Luca, who is gradually revealed as the long-lost love of her life. Gian Luca’s story of their doomed love affair comprises the film’s mesmerising second half.
Praised for its inventive style, Tabu moves from contemporary Portugal to colonial Africa. Told in two parts and shot in black and white, it is a film about the passage of time, contrasting a society wallowing in nostalgia with one that delivers everything the characters dream of.
