Fiat Lux
Directed by Luís Alves de Matos
A small community in northern Portugal, in the year 2000. The film describes the relationship between man and nature, fixed plans that frame the landscape and man together. Everything changes the day electricity arrives. The nights become luminous in the company of television. The days look just like they were before but people behave differently and have changed their habits. The landscape is not the same.
