Portugal, beginning of the new millennium: Liza is a young Russian immigrant married to a Portuguese called Vítor. He is in fact a petty crook who lives off scams and tricking old ladies. Their son, Mauro, is a strange child who has decided not to speak. Besides her domestic chores, Liza has to take care of Vítor’s grandmother, a bed-ridden hundred-year-old lady who rejects any care that is given to her. Fernanda, Vítor’s Spanish ex-wife, taking advantage of the wave of illegal immigrants into Portugal, turns up with a proposal for a false passports business. From then on, and to Liza’s great despair, her house becomes a halfway home for countless immigrants of different nationalities and races, all looking for a better future.
