Doclisboa seeks to imagine reality through new cinematic forms of perception, reflection and action, placing filmmaking into dialogue with its history to question the present of cinema. Doclisboa is interested in films that are rigorous about their conceptual and formal implications; films that experiment with cinema’s artistic and political possibilities and refuse to be categorized; films that engage with and mirror the complexity of the world. Doclisboa offers a ground where cinema and the contemporary are investigated as acts of being together in, and with, time.

Cinema of Urgency

Featuring films that record and depict issues and events that imply the urgent creation of a community for debate and reflexion. Films that fill the gaps in the media, and that exist through the social networks and other means establishing an absolute implication into reality itself, challenging filmmakers to a daily practice of citizenship.
