Year of residence
With ‘Last night I conquered the city of Thebes' I seek to create a state of suspension in which we feel that all times coexist in the same place. In this way we draw a line that connects the Portuguese boys at the beginning with the Roman soldiers at the end. Both groups share age and concerns. And, although the film takes place in just a few hours of a winter Saturday, we will have traveled 2000 years back in time.
