Luís Rovisco is a divorced man about to retire from a security systems company. He lives alone with his cat. Although it may seem difficult to make a film with such material, João Nicolau creates nothing less than a musical on wheels, sung by a non-professional actor and mature debutante. Between absurd situations and a dislocated and impassive humor, the last chance of love passes in front of Luís's eyes while modern security boxes and safety gates turn back on him, in a film in which there is room even to evoke the Spanish band Las Ketchup.

Such a simple and moving movie!
My first portuguese musical. And i'm portuguese. A road musical. With the best non-actor (that was one of the best cultural managers ever in portugal), the most casual script and the fantastic soundtrack (written by the always perfect Pedro da Silva Martins) and sung by the non-actor that after all is a soul singer. what's not to love?
