Casa da América Latina presents the 5th edition of the of Latin American Cinema Show from December 10th to 14th 2014, at Cinema São Jorge in Lisbon, and for the first time in Porto, at Casa das Artes, from January 29th to February 1st, 2015, a co-programme in partnership with IndieLisboa – Cultural Association.
The Latin American Cinema Show, which comprises both recent works and a retrospective, focuses on three main areas: Horizons (recent films that connect us directly to the South Atlantic), New Directions (specifically programmed for younger audiences) and a look over Eduardo Coutinho’s work: a tribute to the author, one of the greatest filmmakers in Brazil and one of the most important documentarians of the world. Audacious, he explored the most restless, ambiguous, expressive, unknown and familiar landscape of the world: the human face. Deceased in 2014, Coutinho will now be remembered in Lisbon and Porto through his amazing legacy.
