The Return
2012 · Documentary · 71 min. · Portugal
A small village in the centre of Portugal saw many of its inhabitants emigrate in the sixties and seventies. Many of them came back to die at home, others didn't manage to do so, like the director's parents. The director goes to the village and visits the places where they were born in order to remake memories. The director asks how his parents would have lived if they had decided to return.
