The Braga DOBRA Documentary Film Festival, which will take place on 25 and 26 November, with programming from Porto/Post/Doc, wants to show young people that “there is cinema beyond the shopping centres”, the organization said today.
With eight sessions for the school-aged public and one for adults, DOBRA is taking place for the first time in Braga, in an initiative promoted by a team of the National Plan for Cinema from the Carlos Amarante School Group (PNC-AECA), the sixth largest school group in the country.
"Cinema has to be understood as a necessity and not just as a pedagogical tool. We are trying to show students that there is another cinema and things are being carried out in addition to the films being shown in shopping centres. There is work on the film after each session”, Fátima Brandão, the PNC-AECA coordinator, told Lusa, the Portuguese news agency.
The director of Porto/Post/Doc, a festival now holding its sixth edition and which this year is taking place from 23 November to 01 December, pointed out that in a group in which, he said, “a dozen teachers are involved in the National Plan for Cinema”, it is “trying to create reflection on art”, an emphasis that he would like to see replicated in other parts of the country.
DOBRA will have free viewings and the screenings are taking place at the Espaço Vita, and the event is being sponsored by the DST business group.
Fátima Brandão pointed out that the festival will be for “all ages” with “films for all age groups”, involving “five-year olds to night school students” from schools spread over 13 parishes of the district of Braga.
"And we want to open up to other school groups”, added the PNC-AECA coordinator.
On the 25th, from 09:30, middle school students will have access to a programme which includes “Dva Tramvaya” by Svetlana Andrianova, “Le Renard Minuscule” by Aline Quertain, “Le Lion Et Le Singe” by Benoit Feroumont, “Snowflake” by Natalie Chernysheva, “Paniek!” by Joost Lieuwma and Dann Velsink, “The Bird & The Whale” by Carol Freeman, “Hors Piste” by Léo Brunel, Loris Cavalier, Camille Jalabert and Oscar Malet, as well as “Vivat Musketeers!” by Anton Dyakov.
At 11:30 the pre-school and primary school audience is invited to watch the films “Coucouleurs” by Oana Lacroix, “Sam’s Dream” by Nolween Roberts, “Le Tigre Sans Rayures” by Raul Robin Morales Reyes, “Sloth” by Julia Ocker, and “La Petite Pousse” by Chaitane Conversat.
On the 26th, in the morning, DOBRA will be focused on 7th-9th grade students with “Viagem a Cabo Verde (Journey to Cape Verde)” by José Miguel Ribeiro, “Kali, O Pequeno Vampiro (Kali, The Little Vampire)” by Regina Pessoa, “Água Mole (Drop by Drop)” by Alexandra Ramires (Xá) and Laura Gonçalves, “Cidade Pequena (Small Town)” by Diogo Costa Amarante, and “Russa” by João Salaviza and Ricardo Alves Jr.
“Transnistra” by Anna Eborn, an entry in the 2019 Porto/Post/Doc competition, is the film provided for Secondary School students, with a double screening on Monday and Tuesday afternoon, at 14:00 and 16:00.
Finally, note that there is a free session open to the general public who can watch “Hamada” by Eloy Domínguez Serén, filmed among the Sahrawi people in the desert, winner of the 2018 Porto/Post/Doc International Competition, a film that Dario Oliveira described to the Lusa press agency as “exemplary in showing the ability to discover an author, to discover cinema, to discover a theme and to discover a country that lives trapped within a serious problem of international recognition”.
