Filhos do Meio – South Side Hip Hop Stories

2025 · 60 min · Music, Documentary

This film tells the story of rap music in Almada and Miratejo, one of the first major spots of this musical genre in Portugal. Guided by the protagonists who built and lived the movement intensively, we travel through their memories, stories, and inspirations to discover the great landmarks of this culture on the south banks of the Tagus River — built in a territory of demanding and politized working classes, with great cultural diversity in the post-Carnation Revolution.

Directed by Luis Almeida · Written by Ricardo Farinha
