A documentary about the region and life where our farm is situated

In a valley in the Beiras Altas region, where time seems to flow at a different pace, there exists a cultural treasure at risk of disappearing. These are the stories, practices, and ancestral wisdom of the peasants from the Guarda region - guardians of knowledge passed down through generations, who now face the challenge of modernity and oblivion.

It is here that our documentary is born, with a clear mission: to capture and preserve these living memories before they are lost to time. Through our camera lenses, we aim to record not only traditional agricultural techniques but also personal stories, traditions, and the deep connection these men and women maintain with the land they cultivate.

In partnership with the Parish Council, we will embark on a four-week journey, documenting the daily lives of seven peasant families. Each interview, each moment captured will be a fundamental piece in building this cultural mosaic that we intend to bequeath to future generations.

To make this project a reality, we need your support. This is not just a crowdfunding campaign - it is an invitation to be part of a cultural preservation movement, an opportunity to contribute to the documentation of a way of life that has shaped the identity of the Guarda region for centuries.
