ELDORADO

by Rui Eduardo Abreu, Thierry Besseling, Loïc Tanson

synopsis

The hopes and disillusions of four Lusophone immigrants in Luxembourg. Luxembourg is a small country in the heart of Europe, composed of 46% of foreigners, the majority being of Portuguese descent: Fernando, a middle-aged man, arrives in a new country to escape the financial crisis in Portugal, while the ex-con Carlos, who is on the eve of fatherhood, battles with chronic unemployment. Jonathan, an adolescent with schooling difficulties struggles to find his place in life, whereas Isabel has fled a violent past and tries to start over. The hopes and disillusions of four Lusophone immigrants collide over a period of three years in a chimeric land of plenty called Luxembourg.
