Description

When a group of teenagers get together to do a homework assignment on a 180-year-old text, they are faced with very current issues.

Synopsis

Joana took her classmates from Year 11B to her house. They are locked in her room and have a Portuguese homework assignment to complete: a presentation on the play Frei Luís de Sousa. What starts as a typical discussion about what distances and brings them closer to the words of the play, eventually turns into the most exciting homework assignment ever.
