A remarkable imagining of the historic voyages of 16th-century explorer and writer Fernão Mendes Pinto, one of the first Europeans to sail to and travel the Orient-- India, Japan, and places in between. Choral renditions of Portuguese singer-songwriter Fausto's progressive 80's pop album Por Este Rio Acima add inspiration to a lush period drama.

Press Quotes
An equally ambiguous and artificial film object in three chapters, which combines literary storytelling, imagined family stories, theatre-driven performances and musical sequences.
—Vitor Pinto, Cineuropa
The kind of movie one fears is going out of style forever. A historical action drama, serious in tone and intent but also invested in delivering movie-movie thrills.
—RogerEbert.com
Exotic, gorgeous and often brutal. Highly Recommended/
—I. Slifkin, The Sound View
