Marco Calvani on how P-town drama ‘High Tide’ led him to self-love, his husband & a return to acting
High Tide was nothing short of a sea change.The intimate, evocative film—Calvani’s feature directorial debut—follows undocumented Brazilian immigrant Lourenço (Marco Pigossi) who’s been ghosted by his partner and his now searching for purpose in P-town, living in America on borrowed time. It’s not until an unexpected romance with vacationer Maurice (James Bland) that he begins to realize their might be something worth sticking around for.Refreshingly direct and small-scale (Marisa Tomei, Bill Irwin, and Mya Taylor play the few other characters in Lourenço’s orbit), High Tide isn’t trying to lure audiences with a big concept—it’s simply the story of two strangers connecting in a strange paradise.
