Heritales @ Library of Universidade FCT-Nova Caparica (10th of April / 7th of May 2025)

Heritage Cinema at The Library FCT-Nova

An evening of great art and traditions trough cinema at the FCT-Nova Library in Caparica – Almada (Portugal)

Heritales – International Heritage Film Festival presents a program of several film sessions on tangible and intangible heritage, where the landscape, communities and architecture of various places around the world are revealed as scenarios of social unity, of community ties that create relationships of stability and solidarity. These are manifested through the transmission of traditional knowledge, techniques and rites, community support in the face of problems and threats to communities and which allow for the construction of relationships with the natural environment that are sustainable in the long term. Unfortunately, these forms of heritage are often questioned by the context of current globalization, which does not coincide well with the rhythms of a world that is no longer balanced and is forgetting the foundations of its pre-industrial past, which promotes sustainable ways of life with its immediate surroundings.

Due to the SARs-Covid confinement period. some of the trophies did not reach the respective authors awarded at the awards ceremony. This is the time to showcase some of the trophies that span the years between 2021-24 and that host this edition.

The exhibition Heritage is Here! presents a variety of creative solutions for designing the different prize categories and different the material possibilities used in the making process.
