A picture of daily life punctuated by silence. In a village in the north, the daily routine of three families. Glimpses of Isabel, her eyes turned towards the future; for the others, living is the only meaning of life. The camera freezes moments of life through the movement of things in time, values and silence. - Cinéma du Réel

A Noite de Walpurgis is a fantastic tale by Hugo Rocha, admittedly inspired by Goethe's Faust. The narrator-protagonist reveals a story told to him by a third person. Here the third person is an old peasant woman that the protagonist finds in a walk through the mountains, and that tells a story that in turn would have been told to her by the grandmother.

Que só vem para nos confundir e perder..." Este 5º episódio da série "Contos Fantásticos" foi inspirado na obra de Júlio Dinís.

O filme procura traçar a história entre o 25 de Abril de 1974 e o 25 de Novembro de 1975, tal como ela foi sentida pela equipa que, ao longo deste processo, foi ao mesmo tempo espetador, ator e participante, mas que, sobretudo, se encontrava totalmente comprometida com o processo revolucionário em curso.
