[T]his volume boosts the international status and visibility of smaller players, allows for a larger audience to have access to the work of these two artists while, simultaneously, justifying the international acclaim they have already earned. While the specificities of working and living in a particular small nation are made apparent throughout the essay selection, so is the transnationality of the stories told. Overall, the volume highlights the transformative input of João Pedro Rodrigues and João Rui Guerra da Mata in the Portuguese cinematic landscape.
