Luís returns to his native Portuguese town after a decade away. His father, owner of the local winery, is dying, leaving behind a tangled inheritance and family secrets.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director employs static shots and natural lighting, creating a sense of documentary observation of a fading world. The camera lingers on details—cracked earth, old photographs, hands working with grapes.

Those who appreciate slow-burning narratives will find a meticulously constructed portrait of a community where every gesture carries weight. What lingers is a bitter aftertaste and questions about the price of roots. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Helena Varvaki

Best Watched

On a Sunday afternoon when the sun hangs high over the vineyards and the house smells of old wood and dust.
