Forest of signs
The head in the stars, draped in colorful patterned fabrics, let us wander in the forests in search of imagined territories. Between sky and earth, light and darkness, memory and forgetfulness, may the projections sparkle and the words resound. Let’s open the windows and let in the wind. Let’s dive into timeless waters reflecting the flickering flames of our multiplied lives. Let’s cut, open up, dig, weave, unfold, draw maps to get lost, in order to better find ourselves in the habitable world of cinema.
From the 1st through the 6th of September in Arcos de Valdevez, Doc's Kingdom gathered an international community of 100 participants for an imersive program of screenings and discussions, also including meals, walks and special events. Doc's Kingdom is the unabridged and cumulative experience including surprise film screenings, collective discussions and the informal gathering in a bucolic environment, with guest filmmakers in person during the whole seminar.
The 2019 Doc's Kingdom Seminar was programmed by Agnès Wildenstein and Nuno Lisboa. In order to encourage full commitment with the whole weeklong program, the lineup of films screened at the seminar is kept undisclosed. At arrival, participants receive the seminar reader with information about the program and guest filmmakers. Film notes are given only at the end of each screening. Along the week, participants know they will see several works by each filmmaker and have the opportunity to discuss in an intimate atmosphere.
