Millennium’s Turn

In 1999, Maria and her friends are enjoying a bucolic childhood in rural Portugal, marked by carefree afternoons and little adventures. But their peace of mind is shaken by an unexpected doubt: the year 2000 bug, as reported on television, might actually bring about the end of the world. Caught between fear and curiosity, the group looks for ways to make the most of the days that remain, in a time when time seemed infinite. An intimate and nostalgic portrait of the last pre-internet childhoods, where every moment felt vast and full of possibilities.

Screening hosted by Alberto Seixas. Free entrance upon ticket pickup
