No voice and no text, only the power of image and montage. Francisco Noronha builds a portrait of the surroundings of Lisbon as seen by Portuguese cinema, with images from The Green Years by Paulo Rocha (1963) to O Fim do Mundo by Basil da Cunha (2020). In between, there are images of films by Manuel Mozos, João Salaviza and sprinklings of Italian neorealism.
