Clandestino

(Stowaway)

A film by Abi Feijo
(2000)

based on the tale " O Viajante Clandestino" by Jose Rodrigues Migueis

On the morning of December 24th, an old and rusty cargo enters the harbor. On board it carries a stowaway, who tried, during the night, to reach firm land. Along the rope, the journey towards freedom is long and painful. Catastrophic images fill his head. Desperate and at the limits of his strength, he is saved by an officer, who is touched by his situation, and lets him go free. Confused he runs blind thinking the policeman will shoot him in the back... He hears a cry from a distance: "Merry Christmas!"
