Domy + Ailucha: Ket Stuff! (2022)
In 2020, unable to travel, Ico Costa left a small camera with Ailucha and Domy, two young Mozambicans from the city of Inhambane, and asked them to film their daily lives. The result: working, playing, walking, hanging around, smoking, listening to music, singing, dancing, feeling desire – being teenagers.

Searching Nafta (2017)
Shooting on 16mm film in Mozambique, director Ico Costa explores the textures of human behaviour as he follows young men who wonder what lies beyond their immediate surroundings. In the fragments of conversations captured in the Maputo market, a recording studio and on coconut trees, we find daily routines and tedium lead to chit-chat on desire, money and hope. In the interplay between performance and document, poetry emerges from fleeting everyday moments.

Balane 3 (2025)
Balane 3 is a neighbourhood in Inhambane. Inhambane is a city in Mozambique. Mozambique is a country in Africa. Africa is not just what you see on TV. In other words, Balane 3 is a documentary about the lives and times of the inhabitants of Inhambane, a city in the south of Mozambique. Like any other people in the world, the characters in this film work as car washers, fishermend or butchers, they go to school, hospitals, barbershops and street markets, they drink and dance at night, they talk about diseases, politics, friends, love and sex. They talk a lot about sex.

Uproar, Eclipse (2017)
In Hindu mythology, RAHU is the severed head of a demon responsible for swallowing the sun and causing the eclipses. It is also Alex Zhang Hungtai, David Maranha, Gabriel Ferrandini, Júlia Reis and Pedro Sousa, all five in the dark, in circle, vociferating to each other, with their arms their feet their nerves, a growing, raw tension, without term, sipping restlessness through a testimony of the exploratory music in contemporary Lisbon.
