Matriarca 74 (Matriarch ’74)
“Matriarca ’74”, by Pedro Nunes, is a conversation between a grandmother and a grandson – an actress and an actor – about the revolutionary power of voice, listening, and silence. About the feminism of a seventy-something woman, an April yet to be fulfilled, the dynamics within a family of artists, and the fears of tomorrow. It evokes a time for calm and embraces, in a performative blending of fiction and autobiography. Pedro Nunes was one of five artists selected for the “Artistas Douro” program by mala voadora, funded by the Porto City Council and supported by A Oficina.
