Our take

Ask any passionate film festival goer what country is hottest today and you’re bound to get a lot of votes for Portugal. João Pedro Rodrigues, here with his second feature, is among those Portuguese who make the most beautiful films, attuned with sensitivity and intelligence to the turmoil of love.
