The Tsugua Diaries

Miguel Gomes, Maureen Fazendeiro

Original title: Diários de Otsoga

In Portugal, Crista, Carloto, and João, along with a film crew, enjoy a peaceful existence during the COVID-19 lockdown. The three friends reside in a spacious farmhouse where hot summer days are spent dancing, doing domestic chores, managing irregular sleep patterns, engaging in flirtations, and building a greenhouse for butterflies. The film serves as both a sunny metatextual celebration of the creative process and a hazy meditation on the melancholy of the lockdown.
