Nachtzug nach Lissabon

Bern, midday. A discarded valise. A classics instructor impulsively bails on his job and buys a one-way ticket south. Lisbon awaits, as does the mystery of a Salazar-era physician-poet and the network of old friends still guarding his secrets. Gloomy, overlong Euro-thriller for fans of Jeremy Irons completism.
