Algumas coisas que acontecem ao lado de um rioA few things happening by a river
- Logline
- A group of teenagers on the cusp of adulthood float down a river, pretending to be dead for social media. When they all surface for air, one of them never does—drifting away unnoticed. As the body floats downstream, it passes overworked delivery workers, restless holidaymakers, and distracted families—each too caught up in their own absurd microcosms to see the quiet tragedy passing by.
