In an altered version of the present narrated from the strange future of 2069, we follow the life of Prince Alfredo. This sensitive, environmentally aware royal doesn’t want to be the next king. He wants to hold the firefighter’s hose and save the forests! So begins his career with a fire brigade whose gay members excel in classical art knowledge and homo-erotic dance routines. Alfredo’s fairy-tale romance with hunky colleague Alfonso provides the perfect platform for Rodrigues’ sharp and funny commentary on race, class, imperialism and the future of our fragile planet.
