Alma Viva - Expat Cinema Rotterdam
In a small village in Portugal where time seems to stand still, Salomé spends a warm summer with her family. What starts as a carefree holiday quickly turns around when suddenly her grandmother dies.
The funeral brings the family together, but also creates friction as Salomé is haunted by the ghost of her beloved grandmother. In this heartwarming, magically realistic family portrait of several generations of women, spirituality and tradition are still very much alive. Alma Viva by director Cristèle Alves Meira was the Portuguese entry for the Oscars.
