本片曾与贝拉塔尔的<秋天年鉴>并列获得洛迦诺国际电影节Ernest Artaria奖. Terrorist takes his son out from the boarding school, and puts him temporarily in a friend's luxury and empty apartment in Copacabana beach. The son knows very little about his father, and the latter cannot really explain his activities to his son, fearing for his security. So the young man stands alone in the huge apartment, waiting for the infrequent meetings with his father, without really knowing what's going on. In this suspense tale with a gap here and there in the action, a father (Claudio Marzo) inexplicably brings his teenage son who has been away at school for many years, to an empty apartment in Rio de Janeiro. Alone and worried about what might happen next, the young man slowly finds out that his father has a relationship with the woman who owns the apartment, and also with a terrorist who has just been assassinated. As the teenager begins to unravel the mystery of his father's behavior, some sinister and dangerous political activities come to the fore -- and he realizes that both his future and that of his father are in jeopardy.
