Nas últimas décadas, com a diáspora alentejana, novos grupos surgiram na periferia de Lisboa e em diversos países de emigração. Muitos deles formados por adolescentes e crianças, provando que o cante está vivo e é o traço identitário de toda uma população.

A Cidade dos Mortos, no Cairo, é a maior necrópole do mundo. Um milhão de pessoas vivem dentro do cemitério – em casas tumulares ou nos edifícios que cresceram em redor. Dentro do cemitério há de tudo: padarias, cafés, escolas para as crianças, teatros de fantoches... A Cidade dos Mortos estende-se por mais de dez quilómetros ao longo de uma auto-estrada, mas não deixa de ser uma aldeia, com mães à caça de um bom partido para as filhas, rapazes a correr atrás das raparigas, disputas entre vizinhos. Preparado e rodado ao longo de cinco anos (2004-2009), este filme procura dar a ver a alma invisível do cemitério.

Moody, atmospheric ghost story starring Mason as a retired tradesman who purchases an old mansion that has been vacant for 40 years because it is believed to be haunted by the spirit of a young woman who had died there.

Soon after Lockwood's arrival, strange things begin to happen in the household, and it becomes apparent that she is possessed by the spirit of the dead girl, though Mason scoffs at the idea. On death's door and bedridden, Lockwood asks for the same doctor who treated the woman who died 40 years ago. He arrives and treats her. The next morning Lockwood is cured, and it is revealed by the police that the doctor's dead body was found in his carriage hours before the time Mason claims he arrived to see Lockwood.

"[...] Looking back, I now feel that I understand that the film was my response to the two entities, Man and Nature competing for space in the local vicinity where I lived, ergo layers of images and sounds compete for attention in the film. Where fields used to be, they were being replaced with factories, power stations, and wind farms. My film is an irresolution. Are any of these things beneficial enough to be warranted? Isn't it all a folly? I don't know. It is not a negative film, nor a positive one. Just a comment. A comment that my subconscious commanded me to make; inspired by the locations that I passed... and the locations that have passed. At the end of the film, a human hand reaches out, as if trying to find a resolution, a reason for anything and everything - but everything, even the nature seems so fake now, like trying to feel the flesh of a mere projection..." - Scott Barley
