Soon after learning of the death of his mother Pérola, Mauro returns to his old family home in Bauru (São Paulo, Brazil). A look back into his mother’s peculiar habits, her illusions, sense of humor, spirituality, and desire to control all things... with the love and tenderness that only distance and time allow. A reunion between mother and son: their conflicts, conversations, and dreams of a better life all converge in constructing a swimming pool in their backyard. It is a portrait of an ordinary family that fights, makes up, celebrates, cries, and carries on, full of stories just like any other.
Unfortunately the movie Pérola is not yet available on HBO Max.
