The Fever(A Febre)

In Manaus, an industrial city surrounded by the Amazon rainforest, the New Year’s Eve is drawing closer and the heavy rains of December give no respite. Justino, a 45 years old Amerindian, works as a security guard at a cargo port and lives in a small house on the outskirts of town. Since the death of his wife, his only company has been his youngest daughter Vanessa, but she will be leaving soon to study medicine in Brasília.
