The Hunters

1970 something. As the end of an era of repression approaches, a bourgeois family still in its bubble of power spends its vacation in a country house. The teenage cousins spend their days in indolence, interrupted by fits of hysteria. It will only take the introduction of an outside element for violence to erupt.

By Flávio

Márcia is a social media pro and knows all the best poses and filters for perfect selfies. Her son Flávio helps her to take photos of herself. This is how she manages to hook up with famous rapper Da Reel Chullz on Instagram. She is not about to turn him down when he asks her out on a date – even if no one can be found to look after Flávio. A refreshing portrait of a single mother who knows how to work things out.

Imaginary Dead End

Fábio’s a tough dealer from the neighborhood of Mouraria. He knows everyone and everyone knows him. Fighting to stay alive, he deals drugs and makes sure all debts are collected. In one of those incursions, things don’t go as planned, bringing to the surface what laid within.

Eva

Lisbon is the paradise lost where Eva finds herself imprisoned to an unwanted pregnancy.

Sheila

A film about the egocentric and superficial youth and the evermore consumerist society.

Letters from Childhood

Letters from Childhood explores a story about two childhood friends - Kate and Sarah - through the countless letters that Kate wrote many years later.

Marasmus

Fragments of light and shade in the lives of a truck driver spiraling downward, his caring wife and their oblivious daughter.
