Casa de antiguidades

A worker in exile labors in a hi-tech milk factory in a prosperous Austrian colony located in Brazil. In a derelict house, he discovers objects that remind him of his origins; little by little, he transforms himself into a wild animal.

A tribute to Brazil's roots, to its secret sacrificial and purifying rites, Casa de antiguidades bewitches as it suggests multiple keys with which to interpret a multi-ethnic, multi-tiered Brazil.
