Hi,

There is a Brazilian magazine, called "Devires", which has dedicated its last number to Pedro Costa. It's in Portuguese (I have an article there).

here is the link to the abstracts:
http://www.fafich.ufmg.br/~devires/convite/convite_2008_resumos

You also missed an article on the last number of Senses of Cinema. You mention two, but there is a third, on "Ossos/Bones":
http://archive.sensesofcinema.com/contents/cteq/08/49/ossos.html

Your site is a great reference on Pedro Costa! :)

Any help, please ask. I'm a researcher on Portuguese Cinema.

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the links. I've added them now.
If you want to help you may join the blog (send me an email to receive an invitation) and write on Contemplative Cinema in Portugal.
In any case, we will make sure to contact you for any question on Portugese cinema. Thanks for the offer.

While ago I've written a small text in Portuguese considering an important aspect of Pedro Costa's work: his relation to the Portuguese Revolution. It's called "Outro final para o 25 de Abril".
