Vidros
The expressive power of a craft that shapes generations. Directed by Matos Barbosa, Vidros is a striking work that captures, with rare sensitivity, the harshness of labor, the intensity of hard work, and the beauty of blown glass in Oliveira de Azeméis. Set to the immersive rhythm of Django Reinhardt’s jazz, the film transforms repetitive gestures, heat, and the fragility of the material into pure cinematic expression, preserving the memory of a craft that spans generations. More than a documentary, Vidros immortalizes a memory—a visual testimony to the dedication, rhythm, and poetry hidden within the art of glassmaking, seen through the eyes of our filmmaker.
Director: Manuel Matos Barbosa
