This film, playing in Lisbon, is Nobert's Super 8 film-letter, with the help of which he try to take up contact with his distant family.
With the guidance of  our directorial and photographic assistance, this man, who has emigrated to Portugal 10 years ago, originating from the Amazonas region, Ji-Parana formulate his personal experiences of his migration and his new environment using cinematographic possibilities. Nobert has learnt the art of painting of Portuguese tiles, the azulejos with which he earns his living until today. Through Nobert’s painting, the visual world of the film base on the art and decoration tradition of azulejos painting. We chose to construct Nobert's Lisbon vision, using expressive, figurative tile-ornaments found on buildings, metro-stations, in apartments, on every corner.
Besides, the azulejos painting in Portuguese history shows an interesting parallel and an example of the possibilities for the integration of the cultures of today's immigrants in Europe. The history of tile-painting tells the story of connection and interaction between cultures. The Portuguese azulejos, were influenced from outside from the beginning on. The system of motives, its unique expression, which Portugal is rightly proud of, was created through the integration of Spanish, Dutch, Arabic, Indian, Chinese, Brazilian and African motives into national art.
