In his empathetic and beautiful film, Christophe Bisson finds a new way to create images appropriate for capturing the experience of homelessness. Working in the city of Porto, Portugal, he chose a surprising setting: The whole film takes place in a few large rooms of a once-glorious palace. Within this setting, a group of homeless men and women create a theater space, and share their stories. The film evokes, at times, historical paintings, and works by Samuel Beckett and Luis Bu?uel. Ultimately, the film allows its subjects to reveal their deepest feelings and their inner beauty.
