Alive and Dead

Directed by Marco Leão and André Santos

With Miguel Guilherme and Teresa Madruga

António, an absentee father, is in charge of feeding his daughter's old cat while she's on vacation. When the cat doesn't show up, António convinces himself that something bad might've happened as he stumbles on small clues. Do these signs corroborate his beliefs or is António projecting his worst fear, facing death? Cat sitting turned into an existential thriller.
