Fontelonga is a village of Trás-os-Montes, in the interior of
Portugal. A mirror of exile in the eyes of their own people. A
reflexion where memory is the last object of beauty and redemption.

On our face, the bread we knead, In our mouth, the bread we all are.
The sun on the snowy night, From the cold spring to the warm bonfire.
The earthworm searches for the earth-hole, The furze surrounds the
white birch, In a spiraling life. The cold kept us warm, And a hundred
bolts of lightning opened us, We leave sad, yet happy. In three days
plus three, plus one that is all. We are three, plus three, plus
three, plus three, plus three, plus three, minus one who we all are.

Contemplate ruins means facing simultaneously the present and the
past, and, in a certain way, to consider what might happen in the
future. Considering the great crisis we are experiencing, what lessons
can we draw by being confronted with images of those places?

A train passes through the town of Alhandra, between the hills and the river. Óscar, who has spent twenty-five of his forty-eight years working at the same factory, is waiting to hear the court’s verdict on his employer’s insolvency claim. With production at a standstill and salaries overdue, Óscar and his co-workers continue to show up everyday for work, hoping to keep their jobs. But when the closing of the factory is confirmed, Óscar makes peace with the world again when he's hired by the factory next door.

A family leaves for a holiday in Scotland, just like every summer.
An accident turns their whole life upside down and every member of the
family deals with it in a different way. The sudden loss of the father
tears them further apart. mourning, loss and interfamilial
relationships, a Christian faith and a Scottish tradition brings them
closer at the same time.

The FISDN presents film secions focused on different countries and regions. This section intends to discover and explore different spaces and cultures with the aim to understand the specific regional, political and social circumstances, do reconstruct the emotional and intellectual spécificities of a special region or country. In this critical work we belief it's essencial to prefer films which rufuse, in its form and expression, the retake of sterotype ways of reality restituition. This refuse is an act of resistance against the actual period of "globalisation", which inclins to impose one dominating model of culture and habitutes.
