There are places as "Casais de Folgosinho" that almost does not exist. There is no electric light, canalized water, nor roads. It is lost in the silence of a valley within "Serra da Estrela". In times it was an authentic sanctuary of shepherds; today the oldest are almost dying and the new ones don't like the hard job of being shepherd. Herminio, 27 years old, opposes the end. They say that he is the youngest shepherd, but also the craziest one, alone with a radio in is hands he goes down the mountains to the sound of some cassettes of the popular Portuguese singer Quim Barreiros, is dream is that one day we could meet him. The sounds of the cassettes and the radio are the one thing that helps in this life of solitude.
