A young man discovering the bad state of health of his father. A father abandoning him, abusing his mother, ignoring the needs of family.

The man desires to see his son.

The dilemma of young man. His decision.

A story not very original, precise crafted, well acted , preserving the aura of the death of Apollo Pinheiro before the release of film. In many senses, a film of cinematography and small gestures like the cut of nails in bathroom.

The basic virtue - a bitter poetry , fair exposed, careful crafted and a delicate portrait of loneliness, clash of frustrations and mercy/ compassion and the courage to give opportunity to a new chance.

The good gift - the way to feel the story as one of yours, in some form. And the intensity of angry and acceptance of the will of father who becomes more a stranger.

The lines after the last scene as tool for make more profound the entire story.
