EN geral

In 1979, Martim, a 15-year-old Portuguese boy, travelled alone to the Soviet Union. Today, aged 57, he remembers that one and a half year stay. His parents, Communist Party activists, thought he was going to a safe place, a society that lived up to all their ideals. But between the euphoria of adolescence and the disillusionment of the Soviet utopia, memories remain that Martim had never shared until this film. Now he's doing it for his son, who is roughly the same age as he was. Catarina Mourão's new film is a confessional triptych about the secrets kept in the family.
