Distant voices tell stories over images of Portugal’s abandoned buildings, tracing the life of the country’s many uninhabited places. Dilapidated residential blocks, factories, cinemas, churches, stations, industrial plants, and a masonry dam seem like ruins of modernity, monuments of a past time.
Ruins is a stunning masterpiece from Portuguese filmmaker Manuel Mozos: a contemplative examination of spaces, time, landscape and history. This beautiful film quietly yet profoundly unfolds as a study of memories and ghosts.
