Costa rejects voyeurism and condescension in favor of a form of storytelling solidarity with his actors, one where there's no buffer of irony, no distancing effects.

Masterful cinema and a no holds barred lesson about people who are counted out and find hope in themselves.

Rating: 4/5 --
Costa remains a master of digital chiaroscuro, of political ghost stories - and of the lives other films leave outside the frame.

[A] gravely haunted story of grief and remembrance from Portuguese filmmaker Pedro Costa...
Los Angeles Times
For those in tune with his vision, the director’s films offer an exciting lesson in just how far a strict adherence to formalism over narrative structure can be taken...
Variety
Rating: A- --
The film, shot almost entirely at night by cinematographer Leonardo Simões, is breathtakingly beautiful...In one beautiful bit of alchemy, clothespins appear as raised praying hands over black cloaks which dance as Vitalina edges past them.

Product Description:
A young woman (Vitalina Varela) from Cape Verde ventures to Lisbon and attempts to negotiate its foreign streets. She struggles to pursue the traces of her late husband, tracking the faint trail of evidence that leads her to uncover the details of his shady, grisly double-life and learn just who her husband was before he died. Written and directed by Pedro Costa.
