2020 Portugal DOC / EXP 18 '

In a time of social isolation, people look for ways to cope with loneliness. Video calls proved to bring some normality in this abnormal period. In these calls we can talk about life and about our feelings; about what we did during the day, about what we have planned for the next day. Everything so that we feel less alone.
