A king. A reign. A life. A journey through the head of poet and provocateur Rui Reininho. From innocence to the discovery of sin, from anarchism to salvation through art and spirituality, this is a film that reveals the creative processes and worldview of one of the greatest living cultural references in Portugal. At the age of 67, Reininho takes on the throne, drops the cloak and and exposes his naked soul.
