Entre os Deuses: Os Últimos 49 Dias

The film is inspired by the Korean Joseon dynasty Buddhist paintings and early Buddhist scriptures of the "Ten Kings of Hell". In the early Buddhism concepts, the Ten Kings of Hell serve as magistrates of each of the ten courts of the underworld to determine the fate of the deceased including the type and severity of punishment and the course of their cycle of rebirth. On the 49th day after death, the soul of the deceased comes before the seventh king and may be reborn, depending on his or her actions in this world.

SPOILER: In the second credits scene, 1,000 years ago, Gang-lim's father is seen dying, and is approached by Yeomra about taking over his position. He does so, taking on the appearance of the former Yeomra. This means, all along, over 1,000 years as a Reaper in the afterlife, the Yeomra Gang-lim has been serving all along has been his own father he was desperately seeking the forgiveness of.
