The Passanger

A quiet, essayistic drift through streets and libraries, more meditation than story, asking you to sit with its literary ghosts.

Directed by

Luís Alves de Matos

Overview

What is the Passenger's universe, when he seeks the meaning of the journey? Where will he get to in the diversity of each route, of each encounter? Haunted by Fernando Pessoa's labyrinthine library, a traveller will look for the poet's memory — and its spaces.

How it feels

Melancholic, earnest and eerie. Slow-burning and demanding.
