Alice, a recently widowed director, is alone on her grief after her daughter leaves home. Alice clings to the only structure she has, a fragile foundation at risk of collapsing: an essay film project, about first loves, dependent on funding. Suddenly we enter in another dimension, another place and without prior notice we are in the film conceived by the director.
The story chronicles the life of Portuguese entrepreneur Rui Nabeiro, founder of Delta Cafés, set against the backdrop of his hometown, Campo Maior.
