Turn of the Tide (Rabo de Peixe) is a series created by Augusto Fraga starring José Condessa, Helena Caldeira and Rodrigo Tomás.
The Turn of the Tide series draws inspiration from cinema, particularly from Guy Ritchie‘s work. The series begins with a nod to Trainspotting and takes the audience on a delightful journey through a charming landscape and a humorous story.
However, this is just the start. Turn of the Tide’s unique style, which is more relaxed than that of Ritchie or Sky Rojo, allows it to take advantage of its story and characters in a coastal setting. The series includes gangsters and marginalized characters, but it is also full of humanity and hope. If you’re looking for an entertaining weekend, consider giving this series a chance as it is definitely worth it.

The opening of “The Domain” is a classic mid-length widescreen shot of a solitary tree silhouetted against the sky. The camera slowly pans left to reveal a second tree, with a man hanging from a branch. This too feels fairly familiar, if disturbing, and one watches imagining that director Tiago Guedes is using such archetypal images to then play with the form, or do something unusual with the subsequent nearly three-hour running time. Instead, his sprawling family epic spanning from 1946 to 1991 largely shifts from the derivative to the banal. Designed like a meaty novel in which Portugal’s political fortunes impact a privileged family of landowners,
