Those who Desire http://hiff.jp/en/archives/5498/ http://hiff.jp/en/archives/5498/#comments Tue, 06 Nov 2018 08:07:27 +0000 http://hiff.jp/?p=5498

<Story>
Those Who Desire is a film about this tradition of pigeon racing, transmitted from generation to generation, but also about the community that surrounds it. A fascinating male community that communicates more through gestures, bodies or silences, than through words. A film about men and birds, about their intimate and impossible relationships.
