Sunburn
Alternative title: Golpe de Sol

Directed by Vicente Alves do Ó

Four friends. One swimming pool. One house. One unexpected phone call. One burning question lingers: What if the love of our lives returned, a decade after everything ended?
Sunburn is a tense Portuguese ensemble drama about old friends reunited in a country house while waiting for someone from their shared past. Vicente Alves do Ó builds atmosphere through heat, resentment and unspoken desire, though the theatrical structure can feel deliberately claustrophobic.
