You already know the legendary singer. For the first time, you'll get to know the woman behind the myth. The story of singing legend Amália Rodrigues who ruled the famous Portuguese acoustic guitar and vocals based music genre called fado.

This really happened, or so it is said. In 1840, a few years after the Portuguese Civil War, a young man arrived at a village by the Douro, carrying a book full of stories. Following the teachings of that book, the villagers of Granja do Tedo founded a social and religious movement that would last seven years, led by the healer Maria das Neves, self-styled “Third Eve, by Jesus Crowned”. The promotion of women’s role in society, the divulgation of naturism, solidarity with the poor and the expansion of free education were some of the movement’s demands. Maria Coroada, Crowned Maria, tells us of the ability to converse with the gods that live inside of us, of the courageous search for voices that transcend us. It also tells us of a book’s power to transform a whole community. And of the beauty of that transformation.

A young priest commits a crime when he falls in love with a beautiful and troubled woman. Based on O Crime do Padre Amaro ("The Crime of Father Amaro"), a novel by the 19th-century Portuguese writer José Maria de Eça de Queiroz. It was first published in 1875 to great controversy.

An adaptation of the short story with the same name by Portuguese writer Eça de Queiroz.

The "Spirit World", a red diamond with supernatural powers, stolen five centuries before, of the hands of the last Aztec emperor, is the center of this adventure in a cursed house in the wilds of the Sintra hills. The heiress of the house, Filipa, enlists the help of our heroes in search of the precious stone, but there are many obstacles to overcome. Facing ghosts of Indian warriors, statues that come alive, bats, trap doors, secret passageways and a German fearsome killer seeking revenge, our heroes will have to gather all their strength and wits to reach the mythical diamond before it is too late.

Maddie, A Verdade da Mentira from Carlos Coelho da Silva is a documentary based on the book written by the former Judicial Police Inspector Gonçalo Amaral whom investigated the odd disappearance from the english child in Algarve 2007.
