Bico (2004)

Shot in Portugal, this lyrical documentary is a story of a small mountain village that lives in its own time amidst changes that shape history. The film tells of the past of the village, of the structural changes it has faced, and of men who have to leave the village for long periods of time because of their stonecutting work. When the men are gone, the women rule this village surrounded by snowy mountains, and sheep and cattle wander on once green fields while dogs protect them from the wolves.
