Alberto Magassela

A man and a woman with no apparent connection are involved in a bizarre bank robbery, resulting in their death. Their children (Lara and Simão), faced with the impasse in the police investigation, decide to unravel the mystery that led to the tragedy. What they discover is just the tip of the skein. Other deaths follow, all unrelated to view and entangled in a mysterious web that seems to have no end. What will be the next target?

What side is love on? Vera and Rodrigo are absolutely passionate about each other and get married, having João as the product of their love. But, like any other marriage, their relationship has its ups and downs between intense passion and their differing life views. Vera is a up and coming lawyer and Rodrigo an agronomy engineer. She's an urban woman who doesn’t do well in a rural environment while he loves the country and bulls, not too keen on city life. To make things worse, along comes Eduardo, Vera's boss and a brilliant but vicious lawyer. He hopes to prevent any possibility of reconciliation between Vera and Rodrigo and ensure that Vera keeps full custody of their son João. He wants this because, when he was deployed in Angola as a military, Eduardo swore to Rodrigo’s father João Maria, that he’d have his revenge.

Over the course of one night, two middle-aged friends—actors in a struggling theater company—wander the streets of Lisbon’s less touristy neighborhoods, which seem to never sleep, and talk about all and nothing, about life, work, commitment, the stage, illness, death, family.

Barata wants to save it and continue to stage plays, while Hermínio has doubts about whether it should continue. The rift could shake their decades-long friendship.
