Ossos

Estrela d’Africa, a creole quarter on the outskirts of Lisbon. A newborn baby narrowly escapes death on several occasions. Tina, his young mother, takes him in her arms and turns on the gas. Rescued by his father, he ends up on the streets living at the mercy of charity. He is nearly sold twice for next to nothing out of despair and out of love. But Tina can’t forget, and her sisters in the neighbourhood are bent on avenging her.
