A film by Basil Da Cunha
Reboleira, a suburb of Lisbon. After a robbery gone wrong, a car ends up crashed right in the middle of the neighborhood. The driver is arrested, but the €180,000 that were stolen have vanished. Within the area sealed off by the police, rumors spread and speculations run wild. Among the residents, a whole cast of colorful characters dream of getting their hands on the loot. Who will the first to get their hands on it?
Basil Da Cunha was born in Morges, Switzerland, in 1985. He finishes the HEAD in Geneva with his first feature length film "ATÉ VER A LUZ" in 2013. His body of work, rooted in reality and shaped by genre cinema, from magical realism to film noir and musicals, has established a lasting presence in major international festivals.
After completing O JACARÉ , an ensemble film, Basil is developing the series PUBLIC ENEMY, and is preparing FURIA, a superhero film emerging from working-class neighborhoods.
