In this film there is a crescent count until the demystification of a bridge that connects and separates one country from another. Portugal and Spain, distant by fragments of their memories, images, objects, voices and ruins. Time runs out... An anxiety floats above the border and also a strength of believing that it is possible to change some things until the very last minute of our cross-over. In a world of contradictions, inequalities remain, existing surprising stories in almost forgotten lands. We are standing before a jigsaw puzzle organized into a map of ideas and memories.

Todos los años, en la Beira Alta, la provincia con mayor índice de despoblación, trece aldeas de la Raia rejuvenecen para una corrida de toros con características únicas en el mundo: a Capeia Arraiana. Los mayordomos preparan la fiesta y contribuyen para el patrimonio etnográfico, iniciando un ritual de emancipación en donde se ven confrontados con la fuerza del toro. Empuñando “O Forcão”, objeto rudimentario hecho e madera, varios hombres lidian los toros muchas veces traídos de España. Las aldeas compiten entre sí por ser la mejor Capeia del año.
Art Direction
Fallen to an aquatic world, they move ineffably in a dense, clear atmosphere as if it was their first autonomous moment.
