PERCEBES

About the Film

Short | 11 MIN | Portugal, France

With the sea and the urban Algarve as a backdrop, we follow the complete life cycle of a special shellfish called percebes, a goose barnacle. From their formation to the dish, we cross different contexts in this journey, allowing us to better understand this region and its inhabitants.
