«Photo taken during the making of my film “L’Oiseau de la Nuit” in Lisbon with famous filmmaker Joao Pedro Rodriguez, and his favorite actor in Lisbon Fernando who is the star of “Morir come un hombre” and my film “L’Oiseau de la Nuit”. This film tells a story about Lisbon and its animal goddess who is at the origin of the creation of the city and its seven hills. Here we are on a beach of wonderful transvestite mermaids, wearing the most fabulous hats of the sea..the octopus. Photo taken with the help of Lucya Gerhart.»
