Owner's Portrait
"Owner's Portrait" is a documentary fable, with an atmosphere of science fiction: on a remote island, where there are no more humans or money left, lives a community of cats that transmits a libertarian message. The antennas propagate it throughout the planet and are the dogs the first to hear it. Meanwhile, workers lose their lives working in the factory. The animals escape from their homes and the owners go looking for them. In the streets they hear the voices of past revolutions and wonder if a new world can grow at this moment.

The Flame of a Candle
Northern Portugal. An imposing residence with its garden and magnolia tree. As we know, home is a place that film, this outdoor art, has often used to depict less the joys of family life than a pernicious space. André Gil Mata has made it his stage, with its rooms, its furniture, what plays out there and what has already played out there. From one room to another, from one era to another, the film delves deep into this enclosed space, a kind of suffocating box.
