AUSPICE
Portugal, Brazil, Drama, Short, 2019
It dawns. A group of hunters is reunited, suspended in time and space. Prey and predator.
This film is a reflection on Patriachal power structures still engrained in Portuguese society. Through a methaforical approach, mainly focused on visual clues and composition, it reflects on an on-going transformation in Portugal and the waves of change that it might reverberate. It explores references of Portuguese ethnographic cinema, using certain codes to set the tone for the movie.
