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