O Pão

This programme approaches bread as a primordial material and a symbol of transformation, bringing together different perspectives on its meaning. It traces connections between agricultural work, religious practices and forms of community life, moving from seminal works in Portuguese cinema with an ethnographic approach to contemporary artist films and formal exercises in which waiting and fermentation take shape. Across the programme, gestures of production and the handling of raw material meet domestic intimacy, historical memory and a particular sense of time.
