Cláudia Ribeiro was born in 1990, in Guimarães, in the North of Portugal, and currently lives in Porto. She has a Bachelor’s degree in Film and a Master’s in Anthropology - Visual Cultures. Her work is focused mainly on the concepts of culture and identity, moved by a constant questioning of human behavior, memory, representation, and the concept of reality. “The Life We Know” is her debut in documentary film, the result of 7 months of painstaking fieldwork in a small inland village in northern Portugal.
