The Portuguese House

Una quinta portuguesa

Director Avelina Prat

After his wife suddenly leaves him, Fernando, a quiet geography teacher, finds himself lost and adrift. Seeking escape, he travels to the Portuguese countryside where he impulsively assumes the identity of a deceased gardener at a beautiful, secluded estate. As he navigates this borrowed life, he strikes up a profound and unexpected friendship with the estate's quirky owner. A meditative journey of self-discovery set against the lush, quiet backdrop of an ancient quinta.
