Following the Tide

Overview

Through the observation of the river harvesters on the bay of Barreiro, a city right in front of Lisbon, from below the surface of the tidal sand flats, the film pursues a delicate portrait of their palafitic waterline architecture and mode of inhabiting inseparable from semi-clandestine activity. A landscape that has resisted industrial and urban pressure facing now on the border its own upcoming disappearance.
