Inspired by a postcard that French critic Serge Daney sent to director João César Monteiro, this singular piece of cinema ostensibly sees a director (Monteiro) putting on a production of an adaptation of August Strindberg’s novel Inferno. But with writing credits given to Pier Paolo Pasolini, Teixeira de Pascoaes, and André Breton alongside Strindberg and Monteiro, the levels of adaptation are unwieldy to the point of irrelevance.
