This film has no beginning or end because it is itself a piece of life of two friends and therefore almost real. The action takes place in Brazil but could have happened anywhere else; it is a realistic story in which no older person appears, (except briefly by Skype the mother of one of the protagonists and the conversation is soon over) the film therefore is composed of mixed characters of different ages without family ties. They share illusions, problems, loves and disappointments, joys and sorrows. At an age when many people are not sure of anything yet and abandon what they have achieved, others see in what they have abandoned an opportunity of a new life and a future. Like the fable of the old philosopher there are those who gathered up what others throw away. This film with very good interpretations gets you to become one of the protagonists. A third friend.

A Brazilian-Portuguese film held in Belo Horizonte. There are some good moments and a few nice dialogs for sure, acting is very good, but the general outcome is too pretentious and sluggish. The camera moves too much and in the script too little happens. The movie works better in its warm moments, but the cold ones overcome them.

Agree with earlier review by "pacolopez". Take this for what it is - a kindly etched slice of life among two young protagonists who've settled into adulthood, and probe around for what comes next. Where indeed will they "grow old"?

The two female friends from Lisbon are highly relatable characters. Their Belo Horizonte social set are mainly real people appearing under their real names.

At the end, it seems that not much has happened. But each friend is that much further ahead, in making the leap from the young person's world of broad possibilities, to the more settled paths that usually await us.

At time of writing, could be found on Kanopy, great COVID-19 friend.

Are you tired of being seduced and over stimulated by CGI superhero nonsense or murderous bottom feeder meanes or creepy horror nightmares? Do you want to enjoy relaxing into a film that will demand absolutely nothing of you not even your attention? This piqued my interest on a flight and I thoroughly enjoyed actually being interested in the delicate characters.

A movie about cigarrets.

I love everyday movie, but this one!?

Nothing happens!

There is no scene without cigarrets.

Wtf!?

Bla Bla bla Bla bla Bla bla Bla.
