Без иллюзий
Леао, рабочий-гастарбайтер на лиссабонской стройке, падает в обморок, а обморок оборачивается двухмесячной комой. Мариана, молодая медсестра, ухаживает за пациентом и отправляется сопровождать его в возвращении на родину, на Кабо Верде, где нет нужных медикаментов, но наверняка есть родственники Леао. Мариана пытается раскрыть прошлое неподвижного пациента, оно становится ясным, то вновь запутывается, и заставляет ее каждый день смотреть на жизнь под новым углом. Пробуждение главного героя открывает новый виток спирали.
