Will-o’-the-Wisp
Alternative title: Fogo-Fátuo

Directed by João Pedro Rodrigues

In the year of 2069, a king without a crown faces a fateful crossroads.
Will-o’-the-Wisp is a gleefully irreverent Portuguese musical fantasy about royalty, firefighters, environmental crisis and gay desire. João Pedro Rodrigues fills the film with visual invention and camp theatricality, making its political satire feel playful rather than heavy.
