The Metamorphosis of Birds 2021

[Sheffield/Doc] This autobiographical essay is sustained by long monologues that tell us the director's family story. It is a "represented documentary", a poetic interpretation of reality. But it is most effective when it approaches that reality, but when it constructs compositions of poetic images it is pretentious, entangled in an artificial beauty and a typically Portuguese melancholy that is unbearable.
