Arquivo / 49ª mostra

Mario, 17, dives in a lake, hits his head and becomes quadriplegic. The physical paralysis makes him face his existential immobility. His fear of moving on dives him in his teenager past in the 1970s — the peak of the military dictatorship in Brazil. Abandoned by his own body, he recomposes the shards of what he has lived and says goodbye to his adolescence. Adapted from the eponymous and autobiographical novel by Marcelo Rubens Paiva.
