About The Smotherer
Vicente is an “abafador”, a smotherer who travels around with the mission of ending the suffering of those who are terminally ill and dying. Tired of living like a criminal, he does one last service but is caught red-handed by a woman.
Directed by Silvana Torricella, The Smotherer leans on a strong ensemble — João Cachola, Maria Leite, Jorge Mota — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2023.
