The palatial 19th-century Palácio de Bolsa, formerly a stock market, was built to impress potential European investors.

Built on the grounds of a former palace, the university is famed for its baroque library, the Biblioteca Joanina, and its 18th-century bell tower. In the city’s old town lies the 12th-century Romanesque cathedral Sé Velha.
Los Angeles is a sprawling Southern California city and the center of the nation’s film and television industry.

On Hollywood Boulevard, TCL Chinese Theatre displays celebrities’ hand- and footprints, the Walk of Fame honors thousands of luminaries and vendors sell maps to stars’ homes.

Milagre (2019)
Miracle is a philosophical investigation into the most mysterious phenomenon in Christianity. The starting point for the film is the surprising fact that so many have opinions formed about Christendom without, at any time, dwelling on a sincere and thorough examination of its essential element: the miraculous events. The theme, impenetrable by any human science of yesterday, today or tomorrow, finds three of the most capable thinkers to examine this puzzle in a profound, fascinating and sweeping way.
