autumn-movieThe award-winning Portuguese film Autumn (original title A Minha Casinha), directed by António Sequeira, is now available on digital platforms in the UK and released in the US on June 3.

The film follows a family navigating emotional upheaval after the eldest son leaves to study in London. Told across four seasons—Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn—it captures shifts in family dynamics, including a daughter’s coming of age, a father’s mid-life crisis, and a mother adjusting to an empty nest.

The film became the first Portuguese feature to win the Audience Award at the Austin Film Festival and was praised for its intimate storytelling and depiction of Portuguese culture and traditions. Director António Sequeira was also named one of the festival’s “25 Screenwriters to Watch” in 2024.

The film is available in the UK via Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Sky Store, with US availability beginning June 3.
