PortoPostDoc

Poetry in Motion 2023

After a first test in 2021 with the "Emerging Artists" programme, dedicated to contemporary German experimental cinema and video art, and a second year dedicated to New Swiss Cinema, this year Porto/Post/Doc continues this young section exclusively dedicated to promoting new filmmakers whose work is in the process of being affirmed by exhibitors, critics and audiences. This year the festival challenged a Galician festival (Intersección – Festival Internacional de Cine de A Coruña) and two distributors (the German AG Kurzfilm – German Short Film Association, and the Austrian Sixpack film – Austrian film and video-art). The result is three programmes, one dedicated to questions of the body and sexuality, the other to contemporary practices in German video production and the third, a journey through recent Austrian found footage cinema.
