The Author
2022, Portuguese. Directed by Luiz Máximo.
William is a middle-aged writer who lives alone in a small, untidy house and can't settle down doing what he loves. Confused and distressed, he flirts with death. With the rope around his neck, about to jump off a chair, the man looks around at his house and sees little “magical” objects that remind him of his past and passions, thus making a decision.
