Journey to Lisbon is a theatrical performance deeply rooted in the personal histories of its creators, intertwining their family pasts with Portugal's recent historical narrative. The play uses the family as a central concept to explore sociopolitical tensions, including colonialism, racism, and the experiences of the "retornados" (those who returned to Portugal after the end of its colonial empire).

It features a talented cast including Fernando Nobre, João Pedro Vaz, Joana Cotrim, Miguel Nunes, Mónica Garnel, and Rita Morais. The play delves into family dynamics, generational conflicts, and the passage of time, drawing inspiration from the poetic elements of Ozu's film Viagem a Tóquio.
