His doppelgänger turns tormenter, threatening to destroy Maximo's reputation, his relationship with his girlfriend and (somewhat predictably) his very existence. Disclosure leads swiftly to confrontation and despair, "as if the shocking sameness of their bodies had stolen something from the identity of each". ![]() As he embarks on an obsessive quest to track down the double, Maximo's hitherto placid life descends into nightmare. When unremarkable (apart from his outlandish name) history teacher Tertuliano Maximo Afonso is recommended a certain video by a solicitous colleague, nothing prepares him for the horror of discovering that one of the supporting actors in the film is his twin in every physical detail.
