佩索阿散文集-不安之书的电影化。

讲述20世纪初派驻缅甸仰光的大英帝国殖民官员爱德华在未婚妻莫莉到来当日仓皇落跑后的奇妙旅程。

影片以四季更迭的韵律穿梭时空，讲述葡萄牙阿连特茹地区的真实与虚构史诗。从失语的当下启程，溯回文字诞生前的鸿蒙岁月。途中共振着深浅交织的过往： 二战中滞留异乡的德国考古学家，借尘封档案与家书诉说乡愁；1974年四月革命后农工占据土地的浪潮；在集体记忆里流淌的古老传说。
牧羊人的鞭梢轻拂晨雾，养蜂人刈取金黄连缀成诗。暮色中的猎人、石棚群前的考古学者、千年橄榄树下的说书人，连同山麓间的师生与童谣，以记忆为经纬，以信仰作注脚，共同编织出这片深红土地上多声部的诗性政治图景——莫琳·法森代洛以复调镜头，让岩石、传说与皱纹在时光断层中永恒对话。以复调镜头，让岩石、传说与皱纹在时光断层中永恒对话。

Ricardo Monteiro is a successful television producer specialising in reality shows. He is 45 years old and he has just received an award for the most popular television show of the year, when he receives an ultimatum from his 18-year-old daughter Leonor. If he does not come home that same evening to celebrate her birthday he will never see her again. Ricardo is distracted by business or other commitments and he is too late for the last flight home. When he returns next day the apartment is empty and Leonor is gone. At first Ricardo thinks that it is only a game, but there are no phone calls or messages and after a while he gets worried and starts looking for her. He discovers that she has quit school without telling him and that she has lost all contact with her old friends. She has become a complete stranger.
