(lit. “Grey and Black”) is competing at the World Film Festival. The Montreal-based gathering opens its 40th edition tonight, unspooling until 7 September.

Shot in the last quarter of 2014 in Lisbon and the Azores, Cinzento e Negro tells the story of David (Miguel Borges), who steals a lot of money from an old man and escapes to the Azores, where he begins a new life and falls in love with a lonesome local woman named Marina (Mónica Calle). But no crime goes without punishment, and the couple will soon be chased by a former colleague of David’s, Maria (Joana Bárcia), and a policeman, Lucas (Filipe Duarte), who wish to recover the stolen money and keep it for themselves.
