10 Minute – Experimental Documentary
Directed by Pedro Lino, Edited by Tal Brog and Pedro Lino
This film seeks to portray the tradition of the “Chegas de Bois” – the Ox Fights – that happen every year in the area of Tras-os-Montes in the far Northeast Portugal, as a way to record and reflect on a lifelong phenomenon that is still very much alive nowadays; By carrying out this documentary, I propose to preserve the memory of the “Chegas”, showing different ways of life that still exist today, much in contrast to our own way of “modern” life;
