A descolonização instiga ódios e guerras. Os brancos debandam e em poucos meses chegam a Portugal mais de meio milhão de pessoas. O processo revolucionário está no seu auge e os retornados são recebidos com desconfiança e hostilidade. Muitos nao têm para onde ir nem do que viver. Rui tem quinze anos e é um deles. 1975. Lisboa. Durante mais de um ano, Rui e a família vivem num quarto de um hotel de 5 estrelas a abarrotar de retornados — um improvável purgatório sem salvação garantida que se degrada de dia para dia. A adolescência torna-se uma espera assustada pela idade adulta: aprender o desespero e a raiva, reaprender o amor, inventar a esperança.
