Two of us

In a hotel room, an older couple meets their younger selves. The fun encounter of Pedro Paulo and Maria Helena with Pepê and Leninha — and vice-versa — brings forth the history of their relationship, with its joys, desires and intimacies, but also its frustrations, pains and secrets. Through life’s surprises and hardships, marked by a fast-changing society, affection and partnership are transformed and gain new meaning over time.

Dois de Nós, by playwright, screenwriter and journalist Gustavo Pinheiro, is starred by Antonio Fagundes, who penned the book’s introduction, Christiane Torloni, Alexandra Martins and Thiago Fragoso, and directed by José Possi Neto.
