Gas Flower

Original title: Flor do Gás

Directed by João Castela

Zé is forced to work from an early age as a fisherman, as so many others did before him, to support his sickly mother. When he leaves to the other side of the river to ask his sister for help, his resolve — even before settings that are indifferent to his misfortune — becomes clear in a poetic way, even if all that is left for him is to continue his journey.
