“Görünmez insanların gölgelerini görüyorum” diyerek dertlenen Edward, Britanya İmparatorluğu namına çalışan bir memurdur. Yıl 1917, Birmanya’nın başkenti Rangun’dayız. Evlenmemek için yıllardır nişanlısı Molly’den kıtalarca uzak durmayı beceren Edward, Molly Rangun’a geldiği gün onu terk eder ve Güneydoğu Asya’da diyar diyar, amaçsızca gezeceği Büyük Yolculuk’a başlar; ne var ki ilk günlerdeki paniği yerini giderek melankoliye bırakır. Bu çaresiz kaçışla eğlenen, evlenmeye kararlı Molly, zayıf Edward’ın peşini bırakmaz. Hınzırlığını hiç kenara bırakmayan, çarpıcı görselliğinden hiç ödün vermeyen Büyük Yolculuk buluntu bir egzotik belgeseli çağrıştırıyor. Emperyalizm, modernite ve hareketlilik üzerine özgün bir eleştiri sunan Büyük Yolculuk tarihi olay örgüsüne modern öğeler serpiştirerek mekân ve zamanı da kendince büküyor. Büyük Yolculuk, 2012’de Tabu ile büyük ses getiren Portekizli ünlü yönetmen Miguel Gomes’in altıncı uzun metrajlı filmi ve Portekiz’in Oscar adayı.

A family with a long history (and many members) gathers around a table in a mansion in southern Portugal. The region has transformed from a depressed area into a thriving tourist destination. Kisses, hugs, and greetings quickly turn into complaints and reproaches surrounding the big issue: What should be done with Daddy’s house? It is a tempting piece of cake, laden with rich family memories. But progress cannot be stopped.

The start of Luís Rovisco’s old age isn’t exactly cheerful. Already in his sixties, he’s still roaming the country by himself, carrying out his tasks — increasingly less real — as sales director for the company SegurVale. Sadness, resignation? Not with the songs Luís makes up behind the wheel, and that take over this film from start to finish.

The economic crisis, a teddy bear with suicidal tendencies named Judy Garland, the Discovery Channel, a black panther and the Russian playwright Anton Tchekhov are all part of the heroic adventure of a little girl who has a problem to solve.

This short film is based upon a book of tales "Exemplary Crimes" by Max Aub who, in his turn, was inspired by real testimonies that describe crimes straightforwardly. The Testimonies are individual confessions by different persons that have nothing in common but the fact that all committed murder.
