What happens

Mar Limiar é uma série de televisão portuguesa de curtas-metragens, constituída por vinte e nove documentários de cerca de trinta minutos cada, certos deles ficcionados, produzidos e realizados por Ricardo Costa entre 1975 e 1977, em co-produção com a RTP (Rádio Televisão Portuguesa). A série inclui duas longas-metragens, Avieiros (1975/1976) e Mau Tempo, Marés e Mudança (1976/1977), cada uma delas resultante do agrupamento temático de três curtas-metragens.
