Description
Russian premiere
During the summer vacations, a documentary filmmaker and his 12-year-old son stay in an abandoned hotel in Lisbon: an empty hotel like the one in the movie The Shining. The boy is haunted by stories of monsters and ghosts. But during their stay in Lisbon, other ghosts emerge: that of the first Portuguese serial killer and that of men who suddenly go berserk and abandon their families.
