Odete
After romantic dinner Rui hurries home from his boyfriend Pedro. On the way he dies in a car crash. Odete and Alberto live in the same house as Pedro. Odete longs for a child, but Alberto rejects the idea and therefore, they break up. Odete throws herself at Ruie in the coffin and steals his ring, a present from Pedro. She worms her way into Rui’s family and pretends to be pregnant by him. João Pedro Rodrigues, the creator of the cult film O Fantasma, slowly and intensively follows a story of hysteria and breakdown of a personality. The film received a special Cinémas de Recherche award at Cannes.
