After last year's experimental concept, which saw the festival get split into six smaller editions across six months in an attempt to deal with the pandemic restrictions and still show films in cinemas, Doclisboa is back to its original, 11-day, live format. It will take place from 21-31 October in its usual locations, including the iconic venues of the Culturgest, Cinema São Jorge and Cinemateca Portuguesa.

The gathering will present a programme consisting of 249 films – 51 world and 28 international premieres – composed of competitive and non-competitive sections: the International Competition, National Competition, New Visions, From the Earth to the Moon, Heart Beat, Ulrike Ottinger Retrospective, Cecilia Mangini Retrospective, Cinema of Urgency, Green Years and Doc Alliance.

These pictures of varying genres and running times feature a diverse range of forms and aesthetics, and question many different aspects of the world. There are ten feature-length films in the selection: Arantza Santesteban's 918 Nights [+lire aussi :
