In This Room (2026)

As the world around us feels increasingly fractured, poetry, compassion, and music call us back to the urgent human need to truly understand one another. Through fado and the unmistakable voice of its celebrated singer Carminho, a ray of hope shines across Japan—a country forever marked by wartime bombing. The documentary accompanies the Portuguese artist as she tours the nation, capturing concerts, behind-the-scenes moments, hotel rooms, taxi rides, quiet pauses, and hushed exchanges. Along the way, it intertwines the soul of fado with Japan’s rich cultural landscape.
