In this evocative film, we follow the story of a German filmmaker, Friedrich, who begins to lose inspiration in his work and longs to find some meaning in his artistic life. His life takes an unexpected turn when he receives a letter inviting him to Lisbon, where his friend and collaborator, the legendary sound engineer, is working on an ambitious film project. Determined to reunite with his friend and revitalize his passion for cinema, Friedrich embarks on a journey to the vibrant Portuguese city.
Upon arrival, he finds himself captivated by the enchanting atmosphere of Lisbon, where the blend of culture, music, and landscapes completely envelops him. In his quest not only for his friend but also for his own creative voice, he discovers a series of endearing characters and captivating sights that inspire his work and prompt him to confront the meaning of life and art. As he explores the cobbled streets and immerses himself in local life, he begins to understand that creating a film goes beyond images and sounds; it is, at its essence, a reflection of human experiences and meaningful relationships.
With a poetic rhythm and a narrative that flows between reality and fiction, this work is a beautiful homage to cinema as a medium of connection and expression, leaving the viewer with a profound sense of nostalgia and a desire to uncover the magic that lies around every corner of the world.
