Synopsis
The Tua valley, known for its scenic beauty, faces a critical moment as plans for a dam threaten to flood the historic Tua railway line. In December 1991, a political decision led to the closure of half of this century-old railway, which connected Bragança and Mirandela. Fifteen years later, the local community reflects on the loss and isolation brought by this decision. The documentary captures their memories and the cultural significance of the railway to the people of Trás-os-Montes.
