Surdina
Event
Surdina by Rodrigo Areias
In a rural setting, an old man receives news that his late wife has been seen shopping at the street market.
Outraged, he intends to hide from everyone, spiteful and sad, but his friends insist for him not to listen to the people and take advantage of this fact to grow himself stronger and, who knows, to marry again.
This is a story of the fragility of being old, of what remains to dream and to love when one gets older and the body weakens. In an old and remote Portugal, which exists after all, despite everything we do to be modernized.
Venue: Cinema Trindade
