It brings us great pleasure that forthcoming documentary ‘We Are Two Abysses’ from Terratreme Filmes will feature Schubert’s “Trout” Piano Quintet in A major, D. 667, performed by Martin Helmchen (piano), Christian Tetzlaff (violin), Antoine Tamestit (viola), Marie-Elisabeth Hecker (cello) and Alois Posch (double bass) on PENTATONE.
We Are Two Abysses, by director and cinematographer Kopal Joshy, centres on the story of Carlos Tavares. Living alone in the highest mountains of Portugal, Carlos has spent years writing letters to his beloved late wife, suspended in a time that no longer exists. His solitary world is disrupted when a filmmaker, on a quest to find a mysterious lake, stumbles upon him. What begins as a chance encounter soon evolves into a deep, yet fleeting friendship. To her, Carlos slowly reveals the depth of his grief, his memories, and his inner abyss. In their shared moments, the boundaries between their lives blur, offering both a glimpse of healing amidst the shadows of longing.
We are Two Abysses will feature at film festival Indielisboa, Portugal’25.
