The Portrait (2015): cast, story & where to watch
2015 · Film
Released in 2015, The Portrait is a documentary film directed by Eduardo Breda, running about 93 minutes.
What it’s about. A group of actors interpret the words of Basil, Lord Henry, Dorian Gray, Sibyl Vane and James Vane, from the novel "The Picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde. Next to them are the Butlers - figures that compose the scenic space, essentially empty. In this adaptation of a literary work to the scene, the actors struggle with the movement of the words and their suitability for the drama. This film, instead of portraying the show creation process, sought a view from afar in order to enhance a point of view on the borders between art and life.
Who’s in it. The Portrait stars Sandra Faleiro as Self - Dorian Gray, Bruno Bravo as Self - Encenador, Lia Carvalho as Self - Mordomo and Joana Campelo as Self - Mordomo, among others.
