The soundtrack to the film “Poor Things” by Yorgos Lanthimos, including Fado composed by Jerskin Fendrix and performed by Carminho, was nominated for an Oscar.

The soundtrack includes the fado “O Quarto” performed by Portuguese fado singer Carminho, who sings and plays Portuguese guitar in the film.

Old cobbled streets. , suspended trams between buildings and numerous Nata pasta
.Carminho said that the director, who knew fado well, wanted a “certain link between traditional imagery and contemporary imagery” for the film and asked him to play the Portuguese guitar, which was a debut for the fado singer and still is. Rarity experience for women.
“The film talks a lot about feminism and deconstructs the more conservative positions between men and women. For many years, fado has been shaped by very defined roles: women sing, men manage the fado house, play and write poems. He (the director) wants to deconstruct these more calcified structures. I also think that’s my role,” explained the singer.
