Talk with Nuno Morão and António Poppe

DOC´s KINGDOM

The international documentary film seminar brings together an international community of 100 participants for an intensive meeting of sessions and debates with the presence of 10 invited filmmakers throughout the entire seminar. With a surprise program leading up to the start of each screening, Doc’s Kingdom is a comprehensive and cumulative experience that encompasses film sessions, discussions, excursions, social meals, and collective gatherings in an informal and bucolic atmosphere.

Doc’s Kingdom maintains the same distinctive features since its first edition in 2000: over a week, the same group watches films and engages in informal discussions about them; each day includes film sessions from different filmmakers, fostering dialogue among the present authors and a collective debate open to all participants; since 2013, to encourage full participation in the seminar and intensify the experience of total immersion, the program of films is not disclosed in advance; throughout the intensive schedule of screenings and discussions, the experience also involves encountering the location where the seminar takes place, promoting a connection with the local community.

Contrary to the quantitative dimension of festivals and the formatting of academic space, what is proposed here is an experience of cinema and a global human experience, ideally becoming one. This meeting aims to provide a leap in knowledge and vision for those participating. On one hand, through the concentrated experience of screenings and discussions. On the other hand, using the group experience itself and the opportunity to immerse oneself in an inspiring location as catalysts, pulling participants away from their different usual contexts and inviting them into a total immersion experience.

Doc’s Kingdom is organized by Apordoc, with funding from ICA — Institute of Cinema and Audiovisual / Ministry of Culture and support from the Municipality of Odemira.
