“Carinho Feito pelas Mãos” by Guilherme Petry

A couple that does not get intimate, a couple that barely look at each other. A lifetime together hanging only by a thread. A music video about caress, touch and affection as a healing process and as a vital force.

“Zea Mays - Corazón de Tango” by Bárbara Fdez

"Let's fool ourselves" is the motto of this song. Because despite the illnesses we suffer along the way, sometimes you just have to keep going forward without looking back.

“Foxwedding - Here, At the End of All Things” by Jonatan Egholm Keis

In this magical, melancholic and ode-to-life-like music video about love and death, a widow decides to dig up her deceased husband and make him ‘come alive’ as the two share one final day together doing all the (little) things they used to do when they were both alive and well.
