La Niña y el Mar

Reflejos del Cielo
The journey of a seashell, from being a hermit crab’s refuge on the beach to gathering dust on a shelf as a grandmother’s nostalgic souvenir.
Cananga is a short documentary that explores how my grandfather's backyard became a personification of his life as a man of the sea and a reflection of his persona. Guided by the ballads by him composed, we discover not only his musical ability, but also the deep emocional connections that link the family to history, music and life at sea.
The sea can be many things; provider of food and work, playmate or harbinger of death. Set in the 1950s in the fishing town of Nazare, the ocean takes different shapes as it interacts with each member of a small family.
