Traces are the imprints of the past in the present. Fragments are the result of a sudden change of state, the breaking of the continuity between the past and the present. Roots are the connection and the bond to the past.
Screened with: Distant Water | St. James Infirmary
Doclisboa wants to question the present of film, bringing along its history and assuming cinema as a mode of freedom. By refusing the categorization of film practice, it searches for the new problematics that cinematic image implies, in its multiple ways of engagement with the contemporary.
Doclisboa tries to be a place to imagine reality through new modes of perception, reflection, and possible new forms of action.
