Irene; her husband, Jairo; and their son live in Brazil’s rural outskirts and work in a small backyard charcoal factory. That simple, quiet life changes when the family allows treacherous nurse Juracy to use their house as a hideaway for fugitive drug lord Miguel. This dry satire poignantly depicts a society full of contradictions, in which religion, faith, life, and death all become entwined in flexible moral dilemmas. The utterly fearless ensemble delivers astonishing performances, and the sharp direction confirms Markowicz as a talent to watch.
