Five friends (representatives of the Fifties generation) now in their forties, get together after many years of silence. One shows up from jail, where he has been entering and exiting for years, the other comes from a series of "accidental" murders, another leaves his wife and kids, the fourth one is a wonderer, and the last one, the girl of the gang, comes from a lunatic asylum where she has been hiding for years... All of them are outcasts, tortured from barren love affairs, wounded from the deaths of their beloved friends and betrayed by the politics of their times. They hopelessly try to reconstruct the gang of their puberty, but the revolution is lost... Now, each in his own way, will progress into a journey of death, thus opening a new chapter in the history of their generation.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A haunting reunion of broken people chasing the ghost of their youth, tracing the wreckage left by time, failed dreams, and a revolution that died. The film watches them spiral with the weight of roads taken and lives upended, held together only by memories that hurt more than they heal.
