The fishermen from the Vieira coast migrate inland to Ribatejo, where they settle and form what are known as the Avieiros communities. “The cinema of António Campos is a cinema of respect and fraternity, a cinema based on local tradition and legend, which has deliberately chosen to turn its back on folklore and bluff to better penetrate the vital skin of beings and things.” (Jean-Loup Passek)
