Ilha da Cova da Moura

In greater Lisbon, the name of Cova da Moura was never a synonym of well being, education or prosperity. On the contrary, it was always associated to the idea of violence, insecurity, danger or, at best, of lack of instruction or simply poverty. “Cova da Moura Island” follows the daily routine of this neighborhood, finding reflections of Cape Vert and looking for the ways the social exclusion is fight against or perpetuated in the lives of its inhabitants.
