What is it that makes us leave? What makes us return? What do we imagine for our lives? Which dreams we stop having? Which dreams we keep?
A cine-performance with live music, where 20 years later, António-Pedro revisits letters and images that he brought from his personal Macau — a city where he lived in during the early years of his adult life, while becoming his own person.
