"Hard Pain" won the Teddy Award at the Berlin Film Festival in 2018, defeating two other films that nominated the Teddy Bear at the same time. One is the Romanian movie "Don't touch me" with the Golden Bear Award, and another is the Paraguayan lesbian film "The Heiress", which can be said to be very powerful. However, I think that "Hard Pain" definitely has its reason for winning. The completion of the film is very high, from photography, narrative, music, performance to the idea. All of them are very good. It is definitely not to miss the gay film in 2018.

"Hard Pain" tells the story of a boy named Pedro in Porto Alegre, the capital of southern Brazil. Director Marcio Reolon said in the award that the film tried to tell a boy's fear and the collision of desire. Pedro is introverted, fearful to socialize and afraid to go out and live with her sister. He was arrogant because of his gay identity. One day he finally resisted and thus stabbed one of his eyes, and was ordered to quit the school. As the trial of his violent crimes approached, the sisters who depended on each other left him to go to Salvador, the northeastern city of Brazil, to carry out the new life.

In order to maintain his life, he named himself Neonboy on the adult live website. He earned money by creating a sexy pattern on his body and displaying the body. On one occasion, Pedro found on the Internet that someone had stolen the idea of his body painting and snatched his audience. He determined to meet this person and let him stop cheating. The story of "Hard Paint" gradually unfolds from this boy who shines in the night, following him to find the dance student who steals his creativity, and following his love and hate. In this movie, the gay life in the southern city of Brazil is particularly vivid.

Rather than saying that "Hard Paint" is about colorful, gimmicks, erotic sex and body painting, it is better to say that it is talking about life. Today, in the labeling of gay movies, South American movies are increasingly showing the power of birth. Thanks to the gradual socialization of South America, South American gay films have tended to stop paying attention to gay identity cognition in recent years, but to explore more deeply the impact of the environment on gay groups.If this movie is limited to the boy's gay life, perhaps this is just an ordinary gay movie. However, the film has already jumped out of the narratives of traditional gay movie, which entangled in gay identity and persecution of homophobic people against gay groups. This movie grandly and completely shows the real life of a boy in a city in southern Brazil. Gay is just a label.
