Overview
Flòr da Baixa is the story of a journey that starts from Lisbon, touches Rio de Janeiro, Marseille, Taranto, and returns to the Portuguese city. It is a film about absence, about something that is missing, always and everywhere: in one's own room as on sunny and distant beaches, in foreign neighborhoods as on old, familiar walls. It is the diary of two solitudes, of two parallel gazes that rest on places and bodies, waiting to find each other and recognize each other in the same gaze, finally seeing the same image from the window of the Flòr da Baixa
