About This Movie

Ainda Há Pastores? is a quiet yet impactful documentary that dives into the lives of the last shepherds in the Star Mountain Range of Central Eastern Portugal. The film has this unique, almost meditative pace, allowing you to really soak in the rugged beauty of the landscape and the simple, yet profound, existence of these shepherds. There’s a rawness to the visuals and a sincerity in the way the shepherds express their connection to the land and their animals. The lack of a flashy production style lets the authenticity shine through, making the viewer feel like they’re experiencing a fading way of life. It’s a love letter to tradition, wrapped in breathtaking scenery, and you can’t help but appreciate the hard work that goes into this lifestyle.
