Synopsis
Climax of an artistic project with the same name (an exhibition, a book and movie), Gente da Casa, the film, captures the atmosphere of labour in specific constructions throughout the building process, giving visibility and voice to their stakeholders. 30 km from Lisbon, on the South Bank, a group of men build an solated house in a rural area. Men who usually only by accident or by legal and labor issues are the subject of news, men from troubled backgrounds, who often began to work as children, and whose aged faces are marked by the harshness of life.
