In the Brazilian countryside, a family straining under the financial burden of caring for their sick grandfather are quietly offered a deal. Their bills will be covered if they take in a lodger.
They agree and it seems like their prayers have been answered but they then discover their guest is a drug lord who has faked his death. The family must pretend all is okay as they work to get their old lives back.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
