Reaching for the Moon
Elizabeth Bishop travels to Rio de Janeiro to visit a faculty friend, Mary. The timid Elizabeth is inundated by Brazilian sensuality. She's the antithesis to the running partner, architect Lota de Macedo Soares of Mary. The architect soon makes a drama for Elizabeth although frosty at first and the progress of Lota are finally succumbed to by the poet. Mary is covetous, but unconventional Lota is determined to own both women at all costs. Balance is thrown off when Lota starts focus with her biggest job to date. Elizabeth accepts a academic teaching post in the women and the united states drift apart. Lota, at the times is inconsolable. This ceaseless triangle plays from the background of this military coup of 1964. Bishop's moving poems are at the core of a film which illustrates a Critical phase in the life of this Pulitzer Prizewinning poet
