About Alto Bairro
In Lisbon 1950, John, 13, decides to invade the neighborhood of prostitutes, nobility and sailors, starting a new stage in his life. Today this neighborhood is reflected in a scattered public debate centered on its night life.
Directed by Rui Simões, Alto Bairro leans on a strong ensemble — Lia Gama, Henrique Gil, Carla Bolito — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2014.
