  Brazilian co-directors and co-writers Affonso Uchôa and João Dumans’s film is built around an immersive road trip that is experienced vicariously. A teenager (Murilo Caliari) living in an industrial neighbourhood in Ouro Preto comes across a journal that belongs to Cristiano ($$Aristides de Sousa}), an injured factory worker. Like the viewer, he loses himself in Cristiano’s poetic musings on his life’s journey, his romantic relationships, and his existential ennui.
