Chinatown, New York

"At once Costa's saddest and most spiritual film" (Film Comment)
"Watch films you actually haven't seen in the mecca of the world"
Seats are close together; arrive early for better sightlines

A Cape Verdean woman arrives in Lisbon after 40 years apart to bury the husband she barely knew, her grief unfolding in shadows so deep they feel sacred. Pedro Costa shoots in hypnotic chiaroscuro that turns marginal lives into visual poetry: surrender to the slowness and let the darkness wash over you.
