Soa
Director
We are surrounded by all kinds of sounds, but how do they shape each place and each of us? In "Soa", it's a matter of sound environment, silence and noise, all the spectra of sound, from infra- to ultra, frequencies and rhythms. But also ecology, citizenship, equality and urban policies.
Meu Pescador, Meu Velho
Editor
At a 2005 Carnival night, something mysterious happens at Porto Formoso bay, leaving the fishing boats wrecked. Fishermen decide to build bigger boats, but at the small village harbor it is impossible to deck them. They demand the construction of a new harbor, but many inhabitants are opposed due to a Castle ruins that lay there. If to some residents ruins look worthless, for others they are the village soul and future, as a lot of tourists would like to visit them...While the landscape transforms, we follow the Director voice through the story of the last seven years of this community.
SoundWalkers
Director
There are some fundamental principles regarding the construction of an acoustically healthy society, one where we can exist within the sounds of life. Respect towards voice and words, sonic awareness, the awakening of the sense of hearing. To preserve the sounds that tend to fade out, while remaining open to the sounds that spring out of each technological stride. To build an aural idiom that interprets its own symbolism. To accept the silence, enforcing it in the due moments. And, above all else, to listen.

“Some kind of popular surrealism about people that live in Northern Portugal, their relationship with donkeys and the way they live. They are so musical that it is possible to manipulate without losing their essence...” - Tiago Pereira
