The Flame of a Candle(pt)

Northern Portugal. An imposing residence with its garden and magnolia tree. As we know, home is a place that film, this outdoor art, has often used to depict less the joys of family life than a pernicious space.

From one room to another, from one era to another, the film delves deep into this enclosed space, a kind of suffocating box.
