CINZA
——————–
A short ambiance voyage through a utopian, ghost-like city-state. In this mid-twentieth century imaginary Lisbon, the power plants continue to produce energy, brand new Subway Network locomotives’ engines hum in standby, city lights and neon signs come alive each night and radio receivers spread Salazar’s speeches – yet, nowhere is to be found the slightest human presence: there isn’t anyone to see and hear this newcomer modernity’s heartbeat. Only statues and facades inhabit the metropolis.
“CINZA” is a short film made entirely with photographs from the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation Art Library Archive.

PULVIS ES
——————–
Climate change has altered the Lisbon landscape.
The streets and avenues of the capital are covered with sand and gigantic dunes.
The waters of the Tagus have receded, leaving in their place a plain that stretches as far as Almada.
We don’t see anyone. What has happened to the city’s population?
Empty, vacant buildings; abandoned performance halls; books lying on the floor, half-rotten — signs of a Civilization that has since disappeared.
A poem is transmitted into space.
