Synopsis

"Bette Davis Eyes is an existential drama with a surprising musical finale about an artist on the verge of retirement the day before his last show. An extremely delicate moment that exceeds the limits of professionality, diving subjectively in the craft and artistic identity of a person who has devoted a lifetime to something that he truly believes in, but that at the same time does not offer any guarantee of subsistence. In this very special day, the conflicts come to the fore: a troubled relationship with his son that ends in a passionate discussion where both hurt each other with words, the married boyfriend who is indifferent to his artistic expression. Too much heat in the city center of Recife. Maria Bethânia on the radio. Whisky with enough ice to face this day.
