Single and Ready to Mingle

Carla is a young Portuguese woman of 40 years. Single, she studied modern literatures, got a job in a short-time book publisher, and ended up devoting herself to the translation. She lives in a small apartment – in Campo de Ourique, her grandmother’s heritage – she has two cats (Pablo and Mimi) and never married. She dated for ten years with a classmate, but the story ended when he impregnated her best friend – Judith, the son of the group – with whom he married and with whom he lives in the bucolic city of Bragança.
