The newly renovated Batalha Centro de Cinema in the city centre of Porto, Portugal.
I was invited as a guest filmmaker to participate in the 12th Annual International Film Festival of Archive, Memory, Ethnography (17-21 October, Porto, Portugal). The festival presented a program of four of my experimental film shorts in addition to a master class on the work. The screenings and master class took place in the newly renovated Batalha Centro de Cinema in the city centre. [Festival website and program pdf.] I also took part in a panel of authors who contributed to a new book, entitled Aesthetic Authenticity in Cinema, a volume of essays dedicated to a nearly tabooed subject today within the field of film scholarship.
