A poet, known to be of ‘turbulent character’, António Lobo de Carvalho was a 18th-century inhabitant of Guimarães. He wrote satirical poems filled with carcasses and sex, which led to him having to flee town later. Pedro Bastos presents him here with glorious lashings of colour, organ music and worship personified in female form. Screened before Towers & Comets.
