The northern singer comes to Loulé with a show that combines images from films and soundtracks that made a mark. With her ukulele, Rita can go from Carmen Miranda to the sounds of Pulp Fiction.

VIEWING PARTY
“As Berlengas” by Bruno Ferreira
Benjamin's film album
Benjamim's new album is a film. In other words, a film album or, if we want, a musical. A journey through Berlengas through the lens of award-winning Bruno Ferreira in stark black and white and with the presence of performer João Reis Moreira. In an informal environment, the musician and the filmmaker speak to the Cinema Med audience while we take a look at some of the film's excerpts as a viewing party.
“Seres vivos” by Margarida Fonseca
(Winner of Sophia Student Award 2024 Portuguese Cinema Academy)
Documentary
Somewhere between Cascais and Guincho is a wonderful place. A place where the bodies of three women establish a dialogue with the order of the poetic and the divine. Here's the short winner of the 2024 Sophia Student Award in the Master's category. Portuguese experimental cinema to create a special aura on a summer night. The filmmaker will be at Cinema Med to present the session.

“Nunca mais acordar” by Ernesto Rodrigues and Gonçalo Almeida
Musical reinterpretation of Gonçalo Almeida's fantastic cinema
Gonçalo Almeida's cinema is never the same. This Alentejo native became one of the references of the new Portuguese cinema. But from his cinema there is a musical universe and he himself, together with the musician Ernesto Rodrigues, will perform live soundscapes from films such as Thursday Night, A Rapariga de Saturno or Faz-me Companhia.
