Portugal

Life is far from rosy for comic author Simon Muchat.

He's lost inspiration in his work and meaning in his life.

But when he's invited to Portugal for a few days, he accidentally finds something he wasn't looking for: the smells of childhood, the melody of summer laughter, the radiant warmth of a forgotten - and possibly abandoned - family.

As he confronts a past that's been erased, Simon finally retraces his own path.

In a work bordering on personal memoir, using humor and vivacity, bold colours and raw emotions, Cyril Pedrosa creates a seminal tale on the quest for identity.
