The event
In the fall of 2019 and in the spring of 2020, on the edge of the French Film Festival and Indie Lisbon festivals, Casa da Cerca will host the first generation of film-makers participating in the Ciné Cerca writing residence.
The selected projects are feature-length documentaries or fiction films intended for a cinematographic exploration.
Each session, lasting 2 weeks, will allow the film-makers to deepen their feature film setting, benefiting from the assistance of seasoned film-makers.
A unique device in Portugal, this writing residence is the result of a partnership between the French Institute of Portugal, Casa da Cerca, the Municipality of Almada, the French Film Festival and the Indie Lisbon International Film Festival.
