Same Old West

João returns to his native village after years wandering through Europe. His father is dying, leaving only an old house and debts as inheritance. Instead of expected peace, João encounters suspicious glances from neighbors and the shadow of a past that won't let go. He tries to rebuild life on the emptying lands of Alentejo, where time seems to have stopped. But local authorities are preparing a deal to sell the land to foreign investors, threatening the last stronghold of traditional ways. This 2025 drama explores themes of return and collision with changing reality, where Western motifs intertwine with Portuguese longing for a disappearing world.
