The selected films share a certain political consciousness and offer various singular poetic visions of the world. They challenge ways of approaching the real by using different modes of representation with desire to create new cinematographic forms. Each evening will present a body of work. Director(s) will be especially in Lisbon to meet the audience. Os recém-chegados is formed by three filmmakers recently arrived in town : Gaëlle Boucand, Pierre Carniaux and Thibault Solinhac.
