Project: “Gilberto & Norberto”
Category: Sound Art
Period: April 2012
In a far-off primary school in the Portuguese Beira-Alta mountains of seventy years ago, a friendship was forged between two boys from two nearby villages, in the essentiality of frugal times, made of freedom and landscape, crusts of moldy corn bread, ragged clothes, nests, corporal punishment, and lessons impregnated with the force of a pointer written on a small blackboard.
In memory of Gilberto Henriques.
Sounds and interviews recorded in the villages of S. Martinho das Moitas and Nodar, April 2012
