A young man interviews former child-actor Rodrigo Usher, only to be drawn into his idol's nightmarish web of debauchery, murder, and other erotic delights from beyond the grave.

Here's a brief look at my new film, O Solar dos Prazeres Noturnos (Palace of Nocturnal Delights), a 30-minute homoerotic nightmare inspired by the writings of Edgar Allan Poe. Coming soon!
