Desculpe, este conteúdo só está disponível em Inglês (Eua).

Between the 23th, 24th and 25th of April, Lisbon Screenings will show an attractive selection of new portuguese independent films, premiering worldwide, to international buyers, distributors, festival directors and programmers.

Lisbon Screenings are a parallel activity of IndieLisboa, inviting professionals of the cinema industry abroad, exclusively, to an encounter with portuguese cinema. These films are either new or very recent (even if not included in the festival’s official program), embracing different genres (fiction, animation, documentary, experimental), selected specially to be presented during the first weekend of the festival, at São Jorge Cinema.

The purpose of these sessions is to join conditions to give portuguese cinema proper visibility, by intertwining movies, producers, directors and deciders worldwide in one place. Lisbon Screenings allows some reduction to the difficulties that producers have promoting their movies to potencial buyers or programmers.
