The film stars Paul Hamy as Fernando, an ornithologist studying black storks in Portugal, who is drawn into a series of incidents paralleling the life of Saint Anthony of Padua.[5]
Director João Pedro Rodrigues has described his film as a “purposefully transgressive and blasphemous reappropriation of the saint’s life.”[1]
