Álvaro Lapa: a Literatura

In a journey between Viseu and Lisboa, Jorge Silva Melo rebuilds for the actor Pedro Gil his relationship with Álvaro Lapa, the interviews he filmed with the artist, the years he passed watching the growth of one of the most peculiar works in the Portuguese art scene. And the question: what is literature? A long journey of initiation, reviewing all the pictorial and literary work and ending with Álvaro Lapa’s declaration: Available, available is youth. Even if it is incapable, destructive. But it’s available.
