Escola Artística António Arroio

“Disconnection” is a film that explores the feelings and sensations of Vera, a very anxious and insecure girl, who faces her first day of classes at a new school.

Memories lead a mind… Poetry leads a life. In a final goodbye, Sofia finds pieces that remind her of her grandmother, from poems to Super 8 films recorded in Serra da Arrábida. She searches for fragments of her childhood and testimonies of a life in a now uninhabited house. These memories are evoked through the objects and scenarios visited as the film unfolds. Ultimately, only memories remain, small traces of life, moments.

An intimate film that portrays a passion for Nature, an infinite love rich in the senses and sensations, exploring the relationship between human beings and the space they're in, and the landscape as belonging to something deeper than the mere Earth.
