Summaries

Portugal is Lilia's last home, a 67-year old woman, whose life is marked by continuous migration. Lilia has lived in 8 countries and hasn't been back to her native Colombia in almost 40 years. Josephine, the filmmaker always behind the camera, offers her mother an instrument, cinema, to put together the story of a fragmented life. Josephine explores her mother's present and the discomfort with places and decisions of the past. The meeting between mother and daughter, mediated by the film device, is filled with universal meaning and becomes a revealing dialogue, opening up big questions about freedom, loneliness and the sense of belonging.
