Silêncio - Voices of Lisbon

Silêncio – Voices of Lisbon is a documentary relating the determination of Fado musicians to keep their art alive in the rapidly changing city of Lisbon

Following the footsteps of Céline - a local foreigner who has lived in Portugal for 20 years - we are introduced to Ivone Días and Marta Miranda, two female artists from different generations who fight for the survival of their art and their community. Their common language is Fado, a traditional style of music that talks about the daily struggle of living.
