António-Pedro

In the countryside of Portugal, groups of strangers found themselves on an artistic and existential journey: the creation of a show that intersects contemporary and traditional dance. The director films these encounters over ten years. He evokes memories, dialogues with life, peeks into the unfathomable in himself and in each character. Trying to hold time, MISSISSIPIS is a manifesto on the vital importance of the encounter – with others, but also of each person with themselves.

The living and the dead speak of the life of a three-year-old boy.

Francisca awaits the trial of her ex-partner, accused of domestic violence against her. Claudia, Francisca's daughter, witnessed and documented the consequences of the psychological aggression inflicted on Francisca after the end of their relationship. Francisca tries to regenerate and rediscover her identity as a woman. This court case led them to question themselves about the role of women in a patriarchal society, often placed "in the pink corner".
