In a bleak near-future Brazil where artificial intelligence has triggered a mysterious neurological crisis, K is a forty-year-old man who has lost both his memory and sense of belonging. Blending dystopian science fiction with political allegory, director Davi Pretto’s fourth feature crafts a formally daring vision of a collapsing society haunted by environmental catastrophe, class divisions, and the dehumanizing promises of technological progress.
