The inspiration for the major motion picture "Enemy" starring Jake
Gyllenhaal and directed by Denis Villeneuve Tertuliano Maximo
Afonso is a divorced, depressed history teacher. To lift his
spirits, a colleague suggests he rent a certain video. Tertuliano
watches the film, unimpressed. But during the night, when he is
awakened by noises in his apartment, he goes into the living room
to find that the VCR is replaying the video. He watches in
astonishment as a man who looks exactly like him-or, more
specifically, exactly like he did five years before, mustachioed
and fuller in the face-appears on the screen. He sleeps badly.
Against his better judgment, Tertuliano decides to pursue his
double. As he roots out the man's identity, what begins as a
whimsical story becomes a "wonderfully twisted meditation on
identity and individuality" (The Boston Globe). Saramago displays
his remarkable talent in this haunting tale of appearance versus
reality.
