    • Adapted from Marcal Aquino’s novel, the film marks the eighth collaboration for co-directors Beto Brant and Renato Ciasca (whose films include 2007’s Stray Dogand 2009’s Love According To B. Schianberg).
      I’d Receive The Worst News From Your Beautiful Lips sets the tone from the opening scenes of Lavinia naked and posing provocatively on a sandy river inlet. Photographer Cauby (Gustavo Machado) is an outsider travelling through the Amazon region, and currently living in a small town he obsessively thinks and dreams about the beautiful, charismatic and unpredictable Lavinia.
      He pastes his shanty hut walls with pictures of Lavinia, but while she is enthusiastic in her affection and desire for him, she is also always determined to go back to her husband, the preacher Ernani (ZeCarlos Machado), who seemingly has a hold over his much younger wife.
      The story then flashes back to a few years earlier to the city where addict Lavinia is introduced to Ernani who is determined to try and help the troubled and tormented young woman. Ernani believes he can heal through words and support; Cauby is driven by the images he creates and his desires, while Lavinia is torn between the two very different men.
      When Lavinia disappears the story turns into a mystery with murder, imprisonment, recrimination and the eventually salvation.
