(aka "Paths" or "Trails" )

 

directed by João César Monteiro
Portugal 1977

 

A poetic journey in the heart of Portugal. They were two. A man and a woman that met and traveled down from the Tras-os-Montes to the sea. Legends and steep and rocks, faces and sounds... In the film, the chant of a country's history eight century long is passed on.

Comments

Like all others in the "The Complete João César Monteiro" Boxset this DVD has original audio and optional English, French, Spanish and Portuguese subtitles. All appear to have an original aspect ratio image that is un-manipulated from the print source. 

Again, colors are a little brighter this time but there is some damage marks. The photography brings out some great shots of clarity but overall impressions are it is soft. There are some good extras including more interviews and 2 shorts.
