In a world where everyone disappears at age of 15, Jaime and Sofia, confronted with the disappearance of their friend Salvador try to fulfill a bucket list before time runs out.

The "Origem" series is a 2nd-year multiplatform academic project of the Universidade Lusófona Cinema course. 

In a world where everyone disappears at age of 15, Jaime and Sofia, confronted with the disappearance of their friend Salvador try to fulfill a bucket list before time runs out.

Synopsis:

In a dry-weather world, the "Origin" is an inexplicable event that makes young people disappear at the age of 15. Although the cult members who control this space try to explain what the Origin is. Jaime, Sofia, and Salvador, sceptics about the cult preaches, want to complete a wish list before time runs out. However, before they manage to finish it, Salvador disappears, and as a way of honoring their friend, Jaime, and Sofia decide to finish that list. On this adventure, they get to know the world they live in and realize that there is more to it than what the cult tells them.
