Description: Hailing from the interior of Portugal, Pinto (Cláudio da Silva) wound up in Lisbon, where his uncle left him as a servant to a nobleman. In his mid-twenties, he ventured East, searching for both his brothers and a better fortune. Called by many as one of the greatest adventures ever lived, PILGRIMAGE details Pinto's unforgettable 20-year journey at sea and on land, and the film deftly combines literary storytelling, imagined family stories and musical sequences featuring choral renditions of Portuguese singer-songwriter Fausto's progressive 80's pop album Por Este Rio Acima to bring these adventures to grand life.
