Marco Mendonça

Idling afternoons, drugs, heartbreaks, psychedelic moods immersed in music. An adrenaline rush. Lisbon as the backdrop for a drifting youth.

The story of five generations of the Austrian-Brazilian Knieps family, from the inauguration of their family-owned Great Mystical Circus in the 1910s up to the early 21st century, following both the family and the circus from their prime through to their decadence.

A reorganization within a crime syndicate.

Pavese considered Dialogues with Leucò his best work. Eloquent and at the same time sententious and fragile, but implausible among humanized gods, demigods, heroes, and other pagan figures of Greek mythology, who question, through the imaginary of myths, the society of contemporary man. Out of a time and a certain space, and thus, and like all myths, always current.

A Impostora

Amor Maior

An actress without a job, an artist who struggles to paint and a marketing student from Coimbra. These three young women together, their financial difficulties and existential doubts. Living on a small apartment in Lisbon, they see themselves as allies (most of the time) on the great battle of building their lives. They must share their personal space, food, issues and all kind of awkward situations that life brings upon them.

Within a peculiar family drama, Inês finds peace in pain. While getting evicted by her landlord and dealing with her grandfather’s loneliness and dementia, she finds comfort in the imaginary figure of her deceased father.
