O Signo do Caos (2005)

The film is divided into two acts: the first, in black-and-white, has a censor determined to ban and destroy the copies of "It's All True", the unfinished film Welles shot in Brazil. He goes on and on vituperating about that film, surrounded by a claque and by a young man that defends the film. It starts kind of funny, then it gets kind of boring, then it gets kind of crazy, with scenes being repeated in a cubistic fashion. Then comes the second act.
The second act is in color, and begins with a party apparently celebrating the destruction of the aforementioned film. Then it shifts to a pier, with the same characters. A conspiratorial theory about the accident with the raftsman is insinuated. And then it ends in a grandiose style.

Chaos describes it well. What is the young woman's photo session doing in this film? And the little girl in the garden? Actually, nothing at all, except the girls are kin to the filmmaker. If you want self-indulgence you can't do better than that.
Technically the film suffers from asynchronous dubbing, which is particularly annoying in the color section.
I didn't get much out of this film, and I don't recommend it to anyone. I particularly disrecommend it to anyone that has a life and things to do in it.
