I create documentary films that reflect on territory, belonging, and identity. My work explores everyday lives, memory, and the way cultural groups preserve or transform their traditions. From intimate portraits to broader social landscapes, I seek the gestures and voices that shape who we are.
A forty-year theatrical odyssey led by two women, where migration becomes living memory on stage. Cá e Lá: a bilingual journey of resistance, remembrance, and creation.

Teresa tells us about her wedding day. Ismenia tells us about her wedding day. Teresa lost her husband less than a year ago. Ismenia lost her husband 30 years ago. Teresa is 85 years old and remembers everything. Ismenia is 90 years old and has trouble remembering. There is a photo of Ismenia's wedding. There are no records of Teresa's. Isménia and Teresa are my grandmothers and I'm getting married.

There`s Life in the word Harvest. In the faces, the weight of work, of smiles. Songs echoes, the motors, the sheave crushing the grapes. Douro shapes my grandparents, shapes me. A film of affections, about the family united around the table, losses that still weight on the chest, in the house.
