Paper Carpenter is a film that covers the stories of an 81-year-old man living in an Elderly Home located in a small Portuguese village in Alentejo. Joaquim Fernando Micael shares his memories through his personal narrative, while evoking songs from the past and cutting out boxes of medicines to create the most diverse characters. Giving life to his clippings, the themes fluctuate between the time he worked as carpenter’s assistant in a theater in Estremoz, the years he spent as a worker at a gas station, and his admiration, as a child, for Bull Fighting.
