Príncipe poster
NR

While wandering around the city on his bike, as if trying to find a path for his life, a nameless protagonist thinks about the encounters and mis-encounters that perpetuate or change his routines, about the fears that trap him and the dreams and desires that set him free. Gradually, the vertices of a love triangle are revealed, leading him to confess his anxieties and to question his certainties.

Irmãos poster
NR

Hundreds of children and men walk, aligned, through the roads and trails of São Miguel Island, in Azores, a sacred place where nature and faith come together. They pray for them, for their family and for anyone that meet them on the road. Over one week and 300 km, it's a journey of tears, joy and sharing, during a tradition that started 500 years ago.

An Ocean Away From Home poster
NR

Nobody knows the exact number of Portuguese fishermen that died in the cod fishing campaigns, during the dictatorship decades of the XXth century. Buried in the sea, or in faraway places in Newfoundland and Greenland, those sailors were left behind by the same country that glorified their role in the national efforts to rebuild the image of Portugal as a Country of seamen and navigators. Telling the stories of some of these anonymous men is our way of rescuing them from the oblivion, and of taking them – or their memory, at least - back home.
