Earth in the Mouth

Like a photo book, the film creates new images and relationships between them, resulting in a journey of impressions where the outlines of the world undulate. Between faith, anarchism and tourism, in Poland or Germany, between simple gestures and everyday life in Portugal, Brazil and Greece. Portrait of life between different countries, among friends and family.
