A Santa Aliança

Mar 19, 1980
In 1974, not long after the death of Portuguese dictator Salazar, who had ruled Portugal from the early '30s to the late '60s, a group of disgruntled Army officers held a coup. They were even more disgruntled when they realized how the coup was being manipulated by leftist officers to instigate genuine elections and establish a constitution for the first time in Portuguese history. Though their intent was to form a radical socialist state, circumstances prevented this, and a genuine parliamentary democracy emerged. This film explores the circumstances of a right-wing businessman during those times. The man is an old-fashioned authoritarian, whose attentiveness to the needs of his mistress, wife and son is crude where it exists at all.

Água de Mar

Dec 18, 2014
Urban series that takes place between the Beach of the Shells and the new School of Arts that is being born in the palace of the Barahona family. Against the background of the mythical line of Cascais, this series has a plot full of strong emotions. Each episode combines different lines of stories that cross each other: the freshness of the summer novels, the rebelliousness of youth, the adventures and peripécias lived on the beach, the fight for fame, the generational conflicts and the reunions that can happen... when least expected.
