A clandestine neighbourhood in Lisbon wakes up to the news of a violent police raid. Camila, a 7-year-old girl, goes to search her missing brother. At the same time, Jysone is in a hurry: after 6 years in jail and 5 weeks free, Jysone has finally found work and knows he can’t be late. He is looking for someone who can give him a ride as he walks through the alleys of the neighbourhood, where he comes across friends and acquaintances, which delay him even more. The fate of our two protagonists will end up intersecting in the worst possible way. (Gijón International Film Festival)
