Director's Note

A psychological drama that follows the journey of Miguel, a seven-year-old boy, in search of answers about death and sexuality. The plot unfolds in a large Brazilian metropolis, exploring contemporary social conflicts through the innocent and questioning eyes of the child.

The story, told in a poetic and dark manner, creates an atmosphere of mystery and suspense, with a constant tension running throughout the film. The narrative focuses on the relationship between Miguel and an enigmatic housekeeper and explores themes such as loneliness, alienation, and loss.

The film’s visual aesthetic is characterized by an oppressive atmosphere, with chiaroscuro effects and unsaturated colors reminiscent of Baroque painting. The intention is to create a dense and expressive visual universe that reflects the characters’ inner worlds.

Through the perspective of a child, the film seeks to investigate the fear and violence present in society, addressing themes such as human fragility and the importance of finding strength to move forward, even in the face of adversity.
