Why watch this film?
In Portugal - one European country in crisis- a film director proposes to build fictional stories from the miserable reality he is immersed in. However, failing to find meaning in his work, he cowardly runs away and leaves the beautiful Scheherazade to stand in his shoes. She will require enthusiasm and courage so as not to bore the King with sad stories of this country.
"First part of a trilogy, the movie brings together smaller stories with strong social criticism, cynicism, and melancholy. As a whole, we have a satire about our global financial system, our crises, and poverty."
