In a theater, a play is abruptly disrupted by a man who storms the stage, insisting, "this is my case." His intrusion derails the performance, provoking clashes with the actors and exposing the fragility of theatrical illusion, as order and chaos collide before the audience. The film then replays the same scene in several distinct variations-first theatrical, then more cinematic, then symbolic-each reinterpretation shifting the meaning of the same lines and revealing new layers of significance. Through these transformations, Oliveira explores a crisis of language, the struggle to assert one's identity, and the ways in which spoken words shape our perception of reality. In its final movement, the film opens onto a biblical and metaphysical vision, suggesting that the initial conflict ultimately points toward broader questions of creation, meaning, and humanity's place in the universe.
