As Mil e Uma Noites: Volume 3, O Encantado Plot
In which Scheherazade doubts that she will still be able to tell stories to please the King, given that what she has to tell weighs three thousand tonnes. She therefore escapes from the palace and travels the Kingdom in search of pleasure and enchantment. Her father, the Grand-Vizier, arranges to meet her at the Ferris wheel, and Scheherazade resumes her narration: “Auspicious King, in old shanty towns of Lisbon there was a community of bewitched men who, in all rigour and passion, dedicated themselves to teaching birds to sing…”. And seeing the morning break, Scheherazade fell silent.

There were only two other people in the screening I attended. Quite reasonable; the times altered in every volume and The Restless One was packed compared to The Desolate One. In the Enchanted One, I was left alone through the last act. We all sat through Scheherazade's emotional journey in satisfaction. One left when that story began and the other left when it continued, leaving me to stand up and read the rest of the goddamn chaffinch trapping story, Scheherazade breaks and all.
It ends up a bizarre and boring closure to a really interesting, artsy and educational trilogy of Portuguese social commentary, but considering the set-up of this whole experiment that really kinda works.... |
