FILM SESSION
Paradocma | Session 10: «Crónicas de Santa Cruz» by Tiago Cravidão
October 16, 2024, 18h30
Casa da Esquina (Coimbra)
«Crónicas de Santa Cruz» is a film by Tiago Cravidão, with directorial assistance from Gonçalo Barros, produced by Largo Filmes. It is a documentary about Coimbra that investigates the humanity that has infiltrated its heritage over the centuries, proposing that the journey through the city be made along the identity axis of women's work. Coimbra is here a hybrid entity of fictions and realities where two illiterate women build a memory of a city made of light and labour. A memory that cinema hands over to the future while at the same time offering a city to return to.
