It is one of the most international film festivals of Lisbon and it has the highest concentration of cinema stars per square feet.

There will be 10 days of film screenings, masterclasses, debates, exhibitions, concerts and other cultural events, taking place between Lisboa and Estoril, a few miles away from the capital, and it will be difficult to choose from all the excellent events on the program.
