Biophobia

André is a middle-aged rocker, decadent, alone and forgotten, who lives off the crumbs of his successful days. His mother is an award-winning writer, who lives as a recluse in a country house and commits suicide when the degenerative disease of old age begins to threaten her independence. André then goes to her house for a weekend, getting rid of the furniture and books, sharing them with friends and family. In an increasingly empty house, he is faced with his own inability to solidify himself as an adult, to escape his mother's shadow and find his place as a man and artist at forty years old. Surrounded by the bush on all sides, the protagonist's depression leads to increasing paranoia, intensified by alcohol. Lost in a scenario of delusions, memories and literature, André will face his internal and external nature, in a war where everyone nearby can be a victim.

The Mystery of Sintra

Summer of 1870. Two writers, Eça de Queiroz and Ramalho Ortigão, decide to write a four-handed whodunit for the daily "Diário de Notícias". Could it be that the story they wrote as fiction is based on a real case? This question fuels the conflict between the two writers and drives them to a nearly fatal duel. Lisbon is in commotion. One crime follows another in a story in which love is stronger than tradition. Everything happens at frenzied pace, as in a game.
