El profesor de latín, Raimond Gregorius (Jeremy Irons), encuentra un día en Berna, en el puente de Kirchenfield, a una portuguesa que está a punto de tirarse a las aguas del Aar. Sin pensarlo, el profesor interviene y salva a la joven. La lleva al liceo, desde donde desaparece algunos instantes después. De ella no queda más que un impermeable en el que el profesor encuentra el libro de un autor portugués y un billete de tren a Lisboa. Raimond lo deja todo y coge el tren de noche a Lisboa, para intentar averiguar más sobre ese escritor lleno de secretos que plantea en su libro, precisamente, las cosas que desde hace años atormentan a Raimond.

Recently, I managed to run into movies that take place in Portugal a lot, mainly Lisbon. I’m not sure if it’s a coincidence, but I’d be happy to see even more of those. Lisbon seems like an amazing city chock-full of history and there can’t possibly be a better setting for a drama. It’s very fresh. I certainly didn’t have an issue with the atmosphere in this movie. What was worse was the storytelling style which intertwined the past and the present. The past could be very boring at times and Jeremy Irons didn’t appear as often as I’d like him to. But just for Lisbon alone, I can’t rate it any lower than three stars.

Jeremy Irons excels in a film in which he suddenly changes his whole life as a teacher by starting to search for an unknown author. It only took encountering a suicidal woman and an unknown book. The story of searching for an interesting human destiny, but also oneself, begins. The biggest positive are the interesting actors, otherwise unfortunately the film lacks a bit in the plot, which doesn't really present such a great story.
