SINOPSYS
Within the four walls of a house, Amores portrays the everyday life of a Black Brazilian family, a story that reflects the country’s historical issues as seen through familial affection. In order to cope with the recent mourning of the father, the family refuses to speak about his absence. As the silence deepens, strange stains of mud begin to appear throughout the house. Faced with these mysterious marks that invade the home, the family is confronted with a major problem that their silence continues to nourish.
