### **ABOUT THE FILM:** *In Portuguese with English subtitles.* An older and a younger man meet by Lisbon’s Tagus River, united by an unspoken desire to end their lives with a “last dive” into its dark waters. Their chance encounter pushes them instead to fulfill their remaining desires and vices in the low-end streets of a decadent, romantic city, eventually finding respite, silence, and glimpses of humanity in the miraculous birth of a new love that overcomes the weight of solitude and despair. It is an afflicted yet sublime example of the dual nature of Monteiro’s gaze: he is drawn to carnal pleasures and glimpses of spiritual paradise, awash in natural light and poetry, shot under the influence of silent film, Bach’s Goldberg Variations and Lisbon’s traditional feasts.
