Gomes's masterpiece, a controversial love story (a pregnant woman falls in love for a man who is not the father of her unborn child) in a colonial context is only a pretext to expose the desire for fiction. Is a film so amazing to watch, as it is difficult to describe and explain the pleasure it generates. The entire film is in black and white and in television format. Gomes presents a splendid poetry about the course of life. In its own way, very cinematic, develops excellent takes and camera movements to characterize the various characters in the surrounding environment. It's not all because the images created by Gomes are graceful and with a lyricism at the level of the masters of silent film which the movie talk / dialog.
