Melgaço, Parada do Monte. The memory of a fortuitous encounter on the border between the real and the imagined, recklessness and superstition, comes down to us narrated from generation to generation.
Born in Melgaço (1989) where he grew up between the parishes of Cristóval and Vila. A psychiatrist, he began his studies in medicine in Porto, where he currently resides and works, but on his pathway he traversed through Bragança, Évora, Faro, Príncipe Island and Paris. His fascination with cinema, human behavior and stories of oral tradition has led him to the film course “A Nebulosa” (Rua Escura), in which he made his first short film, “Tanganhom”, presented to the public at Trindade cinema, Porto..
