👥 Cast: Vicente Gil (Mauro), Filipe Vargas (Álvaro)

Editor’s Note: “The Composer” (2024) succinctly fits into the categories of Drama and Thriller, yet it carries an intimate essence. Afonso Lucas adeptly tightens the narrative, emphasizing character development over superficial spectacle. The performances, particularly by Vicente Gil and Filipe Vargas, bring depth to the story. The brief 18-minute runtime is apt for the content. While not without its flaws, the positive aspects significantly shine through. The tagline—“Pain. Music. Intimacy.”—captures its essence perfectly. If this concept resonates with you, be sure to add it to your watch list.
