After losing their home, a father tries to protect his son from their new reality.

In Pequeno País, a father struggles to protect his son from an inescapable reality: the loss of their home in a city where evictions are becoming increasingly common. Amid the streets of Lisbon and the invisibility of those who survive there, he does everything he can to ensure his son can continue his studies, hiding the difficulties and the weight of his own downfall. In a silent gesture of resistance, he refuses to let his son work and bears the harshness of daily life alone. The film reveals, with intimacy and urgency, the fragility of those living on the margins and the strength of a love that insists on being greater than adversity. (Liedson Carvalho)
