The Lisbon Screenings were launched in 2006 at IndieLisboa as a parallel activity designed to promote Portuguese cinema among foreign professionals. With the creation of Portugal Film – Portuguese Film Agency, in 2015, the Lisbon Screenings are now one of the major industry events held during the festival.
Film industry professionals will be able to see recent or unreleased portuguese films (documentary, fiction, animation and experimental), selected for their internationalization potential, that are looking for a world or international premiere.
