Sinopse

As Filhas do Fogo

Three sisters are separated by the eruption of the Pico do Fogo volcano in Cape Verde. Pedro Costa builds a penetrating portrait of these women (played by singers Elizabeth Pinard, Alice Costa and Karyna Gomes) whose faces the eruption illuminates in its poignant song: one day we will know why we live and why we suffer.

Ossos

Ossos is a minimalist drama that takes place in the Creole neighborhood of Estrela d'África, in Lisbon. Tina gives birth in the hospital, returns home and immediately turns on the gas. Tina's boyfriend, also a teenager, saves the child, wraps him in a garbage bag and goes out begging. After a failed attempt to sell the child, the boy leaves the baby with a nurse, and later with a young prostitute. Meanwhile, Tina and her best friend, Clotilde, try to get the child back. The baby will survive. With austere, slow and fatigued movements, Costa's amateur actors barely show emotions. These are people who have been defeated by life in a world where the only truly warm and human note emerges from the friendship between Tina and Clotilde. On the other hand, Costa is able to evoke powerful and convincing emotions, which force the viewer to face despair head on.
