Produktbeschreibung

The first Christmas lights bring out bad memories to Martinez and Olga, worsening a father-daughter relationship that was already hard enough. Between them, the young and innocent Nina does the little she can within her reach to unite the family, ruined by grievances of the past, sorrows of the present and obscure perspectives of the future. But uncanny things happen on the few days that antecede the 25th of December. Father, daughter and granddaughter will welcome the visit of unknown and strangely familiar figures. Each one, on their own way, will learn the tough lessons of those who are already gone. On this reinterpretation of Dickens' A Christmas Carol, Mário Bentes exploits the melancholic terror from ""Minhas conversas com o diabo"" to create a fable in which Christmas times from the past, present and future coexist.
