Synopsis

Stênio works the night-shift at the morgue of a big and violent city. During his toiling hours, he’s never alone, for he is gifted with the paranormal ability of talking with the dead. However, when the confidences he hears from the other side unveil secrets of his own life, Stênio unleashes a curse that brings forth danger and death too close to himself and his family.

Program Note

In Brazil, where crime kills many people, a night worker in the morgue who can talk to the dead body can see who died and how he died, but when he uses secrets from the dead, he goes beyond the line that should not be crossed. A horror combined with ingenious settings, analog special effects, Brazil’s wild style, and the patriarch’s secret anxiety. (Ellen Y. D. KIM)
