Synopsis:
A blanket transforms into a castle, a swamp becomes quicksand: everything is a playground for 5 and 6 year olds, Morné and Carey. SUN CREAM is a dual travel: a trip to the forest for the children and a time travel for the viewers, who are transported back to their own childhood.

Synopsis:
Shot entirely in the interior of one of the last remaining public laundry spaces in Lisbon, the film documents the surviving tradition of hand washing through a portrait of Maria da Luz – a strong willed and meticulous woman who is among the few left to carry forward this long-standing practice.
