Pedro Neto

Tiago is a final-year secondary school student who has failed to graduate twice. Despite praying to the divine, he will fail once again. Between lying to his benevolent mother and giving in to the temptation of a school trip with his girlfriend, Tiago is faced with making decisions. Tiago may not be a lost case.

Filmed in 2012 at Piscina das Marés, a building designed by Álvaro Siza Vieira (renowned Portuguese architect) in the early 60's of the 20th century, “SIZIGIA” seeks to use moving images, not only as a method of representing architecture, but as a process of space investigation that explores its narrative qualities and the sense of place created by use, the materials, the light and the sound.
