Ernesto, a seventy-eight-year-old Uruguayan photographer living in Brazil, faces the limitations of old age, such as loneliness and growing blindness, which he thinks he can disguise.
"One of the most sensitive and delicate films of 2020, 'Aos Olhos de Ernesto' starts off in a banal way: an elderly man meets a young and lively girl. From there, an unlikely friendship begins, as seen in dozens of other films, in which the two characters gain layers of development and progress in their lives. However, director Ana Luiza Azevedo does not let the tone of the film become mundane. 'Aos Olhos de Ernesto' hits the mark when it speaks of the loneliness of life, with a memorable performance by Jorge Bolani, who discovers and finds a new meaning for his life already in his 70s. The pace is slow and some viewers may get bored. Nevertheless, overall, it is hard not to feel affection for the characters, fondness for the story, and an immediate desire to sit down with your father or grandfather to chat."
