Diomar

20211h 4min

Diomar is the name and the central figure in the process of resistance of the old port of Calheta, a fishermen's neighborhood that no longer had access to the sea, losing its small fishing port in order to carry on the construction of a waterfront boulevard, which is today a "promenade" of hotels and casinos. Chosen to represent this subject, Diomar is a multifaceted character, who has always documented the island of São Miguel through his Youtube channel. The camera he wields is like a weapon against time to protect his memories, because after all "to remember is to live again".
