The shorts SONG OF LOVE AND HEALTH and TONY will be in competition at MOSTRALÍNGUA, 3rd International Portuguese Spoken Film Festival, happening from 6th to 8th November in Coimbra.

In November SONG OF LOVE AND HEALTH will also be screened at MEDIA 10-10, Short Film Festival of Namur (Beglgium) and TONY at OVARVIDEO, 14th Ovar Video Film Festival.

SONG OF LOVE AND HEALTH introduces us to João, the only employee that we can see in Morais Key Cutting shop. He is also the son of the owner and he doesn’t hesitate about leaving the shop and following his heart’s whispers to spend coin after coin in the slot of a Love Machine. Marta of the Hills is a Fine Art Student who brings an unusual request. The key that João duplicates for her opens more than a single door.

TONY, first short by Bruno Lourenço, tells us about Jorge, a very shy young man, who works as bellboy in a Lisbon hotel and lives in a guesthouse where he is constantly harassed by the owner’s daughter. As he tries to resist her charms, the boy dreams of one thing only: to incarnate the singer Tony de Matos. This obsession leads him to sign up for an unique karaoke contest, where he will finally be able to give life to his longtime hero. And it’s amid a group of strange characters that Jorge will understand that, after all, he is not alone.
