Maria e as Outras poster
4.2

Maria, an executive from Oporto, lives in the search of the right man for her. On the other hand, her two friends, Joana, a doctor that has fallen in love to a co-worker, and Isilda, a hairdresser with an open hart and an adventurous spirit, seem to be happy with their lives. One day though, everything changes. Maria is forced to take care of her father, victim of a brain accident. During these days of turbulence, Maria thinks she has found the perfect man, a mysterious Star, an habitué of chat channels on the Internet. The three friends find out that cense of humour can be the key for a happy life. Internet, romance, a bachelor party; marriage, dates and some adventures are Loving Maria. A film where love shows himself with the most different looks. Love arrives when you don't expect it and goes away when you think it is safe. It can even appear in the light of a mobile computer.

The Alentejo, 1980s. Luísa, still young, manages a family-inherited rural estate on her own. Although she has the support of her brother Alexandre, another sister, and her brother-in-law, the farm’s survival becomes increasingly difficult. While her brother-in-law advocates for transforming the estate into a luxury tourist retreat, Luísa resists the pressure to modernize. Meanwhile, Miguel, a young farmhand, falls in love with the landowner—whom everyone calls "the noblewoman"—in a relationship defined by class differences and the weight of tradition.
