Cure
Francisca Dores, Portugal, 2023, DOC, 5’
Synopsis: In the microcosm of a fragment of a resin sculpture, we observe fossilized eucalyptus leaves. The suspended still life, where we think we see specters of a world-image, is demystified by the sound of the tumultuous Cure.
Coast
Francisco Dias, Portugal, 2023, FIC, 13’
Synopsis: One winter night, the sea threatens once again the tower block where two neighbours live. The next day, their children come to prompt them to leave everything behind.
