Cine-diaries about rock bands and personalities from the eighties from the archives of Edgar Pêra.

Documentary that explores the history of the Portuguese pop band ‘Heróis do Mar’. Confronting imagery of old Portugal versus modern Portugal.The ideas, the ideals, and the dynamics of popular portuguese music of the 80’s voiced by its musicians and non-musicians.

In 1988, Lisbon’s Chiado was ravaged by a fire; now, some of the highest real estate property prices in Portugal are paid for a piece of this Álvaro Siza Vieira-renovated area. Reproduta interdita was one of Pêra’s first (and certainly weirdest) works to deal with the aftermath of this disaster.

Lisbon by night, through the eyes of a young woman who lives freely, and a neighbour who follows her everywhere, from a distance.
