Set in summer 1870, the film critiques Portuguese society through writers Eça de Queiroz and Ramalho Ortigão, who draft a whodunit for the Diário de Notícias. When their story appears to echo a real crime, tension sparks a near‑fatal duel. Lisbon is beset by crimes, yet love triumphs over tradition, driving the tale at a frantic, game‑like pace.
