IndieLisboa is gearing up for its 16th edition, which will take place between 2 and 12 May. With a €1,136,648 budget for this year’s edition, the festival has selected 270 films – out of some 4,500 submissions – that will form a vast and diverse programme, which includes one of the biggest showcases of national film output: 51 Portuguese films, broken down into 15 features and 36 shorts.

The national competition will present 23 movies – six features and 17 shorts. Ico Costa’s Alva [+leggi anche:

Several Portuguese flicks are included in some of the non-competitive sections as well. Novíssimos, a section dedicated to new (national) visions and new (Portuguese) filmmakers, will showcase The House and the Dogs by Madalena Fragoso and Margarida Meneses, the only feature film included in this section; Equinox by Bruno Carnide; and Night Tale by Inês Nunes. In the special screenings section, Ivo M Ferreira’s new feature, South, will be presented, while his Empire Hotel [+leggi anche:

(Portugal/Macau) will be at the festival as well, nestled within the Macau Focus section.

The Independent Hero section will be dedicated to two distant points – both geographically and aesthetically speaking. Firstly, Anna Karina, one of the most recognisable figures from the French New Wave, will have a retrospective dedicated to her at the Cinemateca. The second Independent Hero will tie in with this year’s tendency to focus on Portuguese content – but, more specifically in this case, Portuguese-language content, as there will be a section dedicated to contemporary Brazilian cinema. It will cast a critical eye over one of the biggest and most audacious contemporary film industries in the world, which has reacted, and still is, to political turbulence and social issues through art – and, in particular, cinema.
