the Network will take care of the television. Log in and take control. Discover, in awe, the chaos where everything fits; and end up looking, desperately looking. It wants to put us in the mirror. Faced with our obsession. Of the absurd, occasionally visited by moments of salvation. A cyber-series between fiction and documentary about communication in the network age. May "the Network" be with you.
Dário Rúben
Oct 10, 2020
In the network age, what is (still) real? Dário Rúben, a guy just like the others, explores the network, watches videos from 25 de Abril, learns to pose for selfies and crushes on Tati.
Carlos Firmino
Oct 17, 2020
The fake news. Carlos Firmino, a middle-aged domestic and gaslighter, is the administrator of fake news pages. Throughout the episode, he trolls through the various publications he finds through the feed and surfs on this thornier side of the Internet.
Tati Diego Carmo
Oct 24, 2020
Appearances are deceiving. The point that someone is willing to go to be loved in the online world. Tati is a young woman that loves social networks. She has dozens of photos that she edits before posting, in her spare time she is an influencer and loves the attention the gets.
Armando Purificação
Oct 31, 2020
Prejudice, nostalgia, the danger of good intentions, of sadness, to continue, to survive in a world that is no longer ours, to seek love again. A misfit, Armando Purificação, feels the anachronism of his experiences on the Network, from the reactions to his youth photos to the unboxings of his supermarket purchases, and also the discovery of virtual contacts with the mysterious Madame Saigon.
Dioguinho TT
Nov 7, 2020
The way that teenagers act in the virtual world, the possible lessons of karma - not always poetic justice - and the cyber risks that affect everyone, even teen trolls. Dioguinho is Armando's grandson. At the age of 15, he surfs the web as he wants, among festival posters, pornography and jokes with friends - even at the expense of his grandfather. However, relaxation on the Internet may come with trouble - and Dioguinho finds himself the target of a malicious blackmail.
A. Santos Sousa
Nov 14, 2020
Professional and compulsive indignation in the Network. Emojis overcoming the language. A. Santos Sousa is an anthropologist, an academic. In the Network, the intricacies of the communication are a source of bewilderment for him. The politically correct is a minefield. Among so many people who don't understand each other, a series of posts and cryptic riddles with emojis seem to make the most sense.
Adelaide Caixinha
Nov 21, 2020
Solitude, the cause for trying to find self-love in the Network era. The search for the meaning of life and for approval. Adelaide searches the Network for some order to end the chaos and uncertainty of her life. The apps come in handy: Wanted to know who finds you attractive, Sleeping Hero to have control over sleep and dreams. What is comforting in the Network, where schizophrenia intensifies and dizzying modernity lurks between online combats that oppose dangerous politicians and masked activists. Also, simultaneous identities between boxer playboys and Instagram old women.
Ana Vegan D'Almeida
Nov 28, 2020
The profound hypocrisy behind everything, or almost everything, that is trendy; the loud, aggressive and cowardly reaction of the masses; how the Network exposes the worst side of human nature. Ana "Vegan" D'Almeida is a well-known author. Juliano Marta Seixas is a well-known director. They were married. The first one doesn't eat meat. The second has a new movie coming out that has nothing to do with his ex-wife. Both statements are lies, just like the indulgent copy-pasted text for fans, Mestre Zucco's commandments or the headlines of Juliano's film. Our narratives are repeated until exhaustion, until a break in the mesh, and in the Network.
Micael Arriaga Silveira Aka Mas
Dec 5, 2020
A young comedian in the Azores. The ultra-periphery of men and the exhibitionism of nature. Micael does "stand-up" directly on the keyboard (besides, he is a stutterer). The hundreds of reactions you receive are only half the enjoyment. When Tati reveals herself to be a more dedicated (and sexy) fan than the others, Micael redoubles her efforts. Unfortunately the pitfalls of the Net are ready to swallow anyone, be it "Untaggables" or "Hated Men".
JT Mendes
Dec 12, 2020
The satire to the underground, to the alternative so alternative that it ends up alone and broken. Criticism of those who criticize the network but still do not leave it. JT Mendes has a lot to be proud of in life. He is a visual artist, CEO and creator of a craft beer brand, has a complete curriculum and a fair age on his shoulders. But trying to silence the father's orphanage with daily dialogues with a paid bot may just be the first symptom that all is not well. Certain distances may be irreconcilable. And nobody seems interested in your new exhibition.
Theo
Dec 19, 2020
Portugal and the prejudices it has (about itself and others). What you are (identity) and what you believe. Theo is a Dutch expat. He owns rural tourism and loves Portuguese landscapes, Portuguese foods, Portuguese folklore. The Portuguese love him, they love the videos he makes, even though they have never seen his face, his boyfriend, the countryside. However, tensions increase and instability increases in the deepest tissues that form the Network...
Father Daniel
Jan 2, 2021
Naivety and disappointment. A new user arrives on the network with hope and good faith ... while it corrodes and degrades. It's incredible, but it's true: Daniel Sequeira had never created a profile on social networks. The time is now, and courage is to be commended (after all, there are priests who do triathlons!). Unfortunately for Daniel, the Network is so inhospitable, the algorithm so claustrophobic, the policing so oppressive, the truth so momentary, that there is no salvation.
Heteronymous
Jan 9, 2021
The collapse of the network. The NO won. The Internet is over. People go out into the street. Everything seems lost, irreversibly more complicated. The tap was turned off and with it all relations, loves, dislikes, pet hatreds and secretary friendships. There doesn't seem to be anything to do. That is, until a mysterious invitation arrives at the home of a few elected officials to reconnect.
