Milene (2026)
Milene has always been a woman of strength and courage. She left her country in search of a better life, finding in Portugal both the challenges of starting over and the determination to keep going. Between long working days and the longing for what she left behind, Milene discovers small forms of hope—in gestures, in encounters, and in the quiet faith that the future may, after all, be lighter.
