New documentary Neighborhoods premieres next Saturday 25th
Almost 30% of the population of Porto lives in council districts. It is a special experience when districts become small towns with their own customs and traditions.
However, they are also victims of stigmatization and bias. "Neighbourhoods" is a look at the reality of five council districts of Porto. From the eastern to the western parts of the city, we watch and listen to the inhabitants of those neighborhoods: Rainha D. Leonor, Cerco, Duque de Saldanha, S. João de Deus, Santa Luzia and Maceda.
Documentary Neighborhoods / Bairrismos integrated in the exhibition: Neighborhoods of Porto: Memories/Time of Future.
Written, Photography and Direction: Pedro Neves / Assistant Director and Sound: António Pedrosa / Editing: Pedro Neves / Music: João Serrador / Graphics: Atelier João Borges / Production: Red Desert / Support: Domus Social and Câmara Municipal do Porto

Tarrafal in "Expresso" newspaper
"Pedro makes the remains the narrative material. Where there were houses, schools, grocery stores, cafes, corners that each had as their own, all that was left was the wind moving through the abandoned land". (Valdemar Cruz)
