Experiencing Interruptions?

Say what you want! I will be very happy!

This documentary celebrates the life of the young black peripheral poet Daniel Marques, who, in addition to being an artist and actor, was a cultural activist. In 2017, unfortunately, Daniel committed suicide, leaving questions about the mental health of black youth and elaborating the mourning that not only encompasses Daniel's death, but also an entire system of racial exclusion that sickens us.
