Evocation of the filmmaker, defined by João Bérnard da Costa as "a film about Murnau's ghost on the canvas, prolonging to paroxysm the game of doubles and the game of spectres".

Gothic film in a monastery, where sensual monks murder the children they receive, with images of fantastic, painted from the author own painting and also from the Hammer films and the Saxon plastic tradition of romanticism.

The characters touch and separate, dance and stand still, fall asleep and wake up, animated by a game of reflections that lasts longer than ever.

Padres begins with a fabulous shot. Instead of two parents, we see two cats, one black and one white.

Manuela Trailer (1972)

01 January 1972

The large translucent screen that dominates the film clearly shows Manuela de Freitas' body holding a candle, or rather a shadow (reflection) of that body and the dominant figure in the film, a variation of reflection, blurring, and shadow.

D. Jaime or the Portuguese Night Trailer (1974)

01 January 1974

This is one of Noronha da Costa's films in which the "fictional" component is most visible. D. Jaime or the Portuguese Night, like the rest of Noronha da Costa's films, is part of the gothic films (Terence Fisher's work was one of his great influences), and in it he shows the different variations around the "specular bodies", which evolve into luminous magic and into sensual and sensory incandescence.

Casa sobre Casa Trailer (1972)

01 January 1972

Layers of architecture fold into one another, shifting perspectives where walls breathe and structures seem to disintegrate into light.

A Menina Maria Trailer (1972)

01 January 1972

The boundaries between memory, dream, and reality blur, leaving only the sensation of something once known, now slipping away.
