Coup de Grâce

Directed by Salomé Lamas

With Clara Jost, Miguel Borges, João Pedro Bénard, Gabriel Abrantes and Margarida Lucas

A man, Francisco, works in an open-pit mine. He goes to see his boss about taking the following day off. At first the boss doesn’t want to allow it as there is so much to do, but he finally concedes. The next day his daughter calls on him, a visit he no longer counted on. They spend the day with one another. The longer they are together, and the later the night gets, the more absurd the situations and moments they experience become.
