In modern day Guimarães, Ana tries to finish a research paper on Joaquim Novais Teixeira, a proud citizen of Guimarães who disappeared in Paris in 1972. She doesn’t have enough time or strength to edit hours of interviews about him, so she asks Sofia and Jacinto – whose biggest achievement is to sleep – for their help. They all end up entangled in Novais’ phantom veil and seduced by his figure.
