Daughters of Fire 
Portugal, 2023 | Directed by Pedro Costa | Cast: Alice Costa, Elizabeth Pinard, Karyna Gomes | Rating: M/12 | Duration: 9 min

Three sisters are separated by the eruption of the Pico do Fogo volcano in Cape Verde. Pedro Costa builds a penetrating portrait of these women (played by singers Elizabeth Pinard, Alice Costa and Karyna Gomes) whose faces the eruption illuminates in its poignant song: one day we will know why we live and why we suffer.

Bones 
Portugal/ France, 1997 | Directed by Pedro Costa | Cast: Inês de Medeiros, Nuno Vaz, Vanda Duarte, Mariya Lipkina, Zita Duarte | Rating: M/16 | Running time: 90 min

Ossos is a minimalist drama set in the Creole neighbourhood of Estrela d'África in Lisbon. Tina gives birth in hospital, returns home and immediately switches on the gas. Tina's boyfriend, also a teenager, rescues the child, wraps it in a rubbish bag and goes out on the street begging. After a failed attempt to sell the child, the boy leaves the baby with a nurse, and later with a young prostitute. Meanwhile, Tina and her best friend, Clotilde, try to recover the child. The baby will survive.
