Scent of Gardenias

Original title: Perfume de Gardênia

“A smell of mystery in the air.”

Directed by Guilherme de Almeida Prado

Daniel is a taxi driver who’s married to Adalgisa. When she starts acting in low-budget movies, he forbids her from seeing their son, Joaquim. For more than a decade, Daniel nurtures a feeling of revenge for his ex-wife, which gains strength when their now adult son finds his mother in full professional decay.
