Filmography
Lisbon, 1980s, Rosa, a woman joins a group of young people disappointed at the post-Revolutionary Portugal. Part of a far-left clandestine armed organization, they share political views and a daily life that makes them grow closer. But their idealism collides head-on with a changing country and a large-scale police operation targeting them. Fleeing on a road with no return and no way forward, their existence is made up of bank robberies, bombs, friendships, prison, love and death. Trapped, their only choice is to keep on the run until they get arrested or killed.
Joaquim is released early from prison after sixteen years. Hiding it from his family, he takes on a dangerous job as a boatman ferrying illegal clam-pickers out into the river as a way to buy his daughter the piano he once promised her.
