About the Festival
Since 2003, the transdisciplinary festival directs, produces and presents creations resulting from the crossing of different artistic languages like performance and cinema, visual arts and music, fiction and dance. This festival, that took place in Lisbon from the 14th to the 18th of November, and that is already in its fourth edition, received this year more than two hundred applications. From those, thirty-three movies about art were selected and twelve of those were from Portuguese directors. In this edition, the feature-film “A Arca do Éden” (The Ark of Eden), from the Portuguese director Marcelo Félix, was distinguished as Best Movie of the Cinema Awards for Movies about Art. To “Luz Teimosa” (Willful Light), by Luís Alves de Matos was awarded as Best Portuguese Movie about Art.
