Geschichte
In 'O Vento Assobiando nas Gruas', set in the Algarve region of Portugal during the late 90s, we follow Milene, a vibrant young woman who, despite having a slight mental handicap, leads a full life. After her grandmother's death, Milene divides her time between her wealthy family and a Cape Verdean family she befriended during this difficult period. The wind that 'whistles in the cranes' serves as a metaphor for the world of these two families as they navigate Portugal's recent past.
