Parents deceive their children throughout childhood, and it's not out of harm, but it doesn't make sense to haunt such a small being with the insignificance of life. However, it is the abandonment of the illusion, and the independent look at the world that torments them in adolescence.
Growing up is really like kissing death, the veil that separates these two worlds breaks; childhood and adult life, separated by such a small distance, that we never know what twist of fate will throw us far from home and force us to exist in a wild world.
Ponto Zero talks about that moment, and makes us spectators of an intimate account of the life of Ênio, a 14-year-old boy, misfit at home and in the world. Ênio has to be the man of the house, since his father is always absent, and also the support of his mother, who is very present. There Ênio is not a son, he has no protection. He is a father, he is a man, he is an invisible being forced to save a house that is in ruins.
Everyone used to be Ênio, he already had to be the father of his own parents, be strong and understand that at some point the roles are reversed; parents see children, and children see guilt for having to take care of their own parents.
But that night there will be no god, there will be no devil to stop Ênio from trying to break free and run in search of his own salvation.
