The Cinalfama Lisbon International Film Festival is an annual outdoor event located in the heart of Lisbon's historic neighborhood, Alfama. For a week, we occupy the street with independent films from around the world.
OPEN CALL
We welcome submissions from independent directors, screenwriters, and composers who want to see their work screened at the white walls of Alfama.
ABOUT CINALFAMA
Cinalfama Lisboa International Film Festival celebrates the rich cultural and historical tapestry of one of the city's most iconic areas, providing a unique platform for independent filmmakers worldwide.
We aim to promote cultural and artistic diversity through cinema, highlighting works that address relevant, innovative, and provocative themes. With a carefully curated selection of films, our goal is to offer the audience an engaging and diverse cinematic experience.
To believe in an independent film festival in the streets of one of Lisbon's historic neighborhoods inevitably absorbed by gentrification is to persist and pursue a community utopia where cinema plays a restorative role.
In this context, Cinalfama has been developing a pilot program to collect stories and orality from residents and spaces in the neighborhood, in an attempt to rescue the essence of this population.
Several of the directors who make up the Cinalfama team, such as Pedro Costa, Leonor Teles, and Pedro Cabeleira, are taking part in this pressing project, whose collections are being screened at the Cinalfama Lisboa International Film Festival.
Cinalfama holds a second Open Call for the Film Observatory - regular competitive sessions three times a year (January, April, and October) - with different categories.

Cinema as a social phenomenon has become one of the most innovative and enriching cultural consumptions and practices of the XX century. Clearly, cinema changes us but this transformation that film provokes is not just individual. We’re also asking for as a community. Therefore, cinema must be understood as a social phenomenon, as a cultural vehicle, as a complex device which catalyze the yearnings and portraits of a society, as a producer of subjectivities.
For the city of Chivilcoy the launching of an international film festival represents a chimerical cultural proposal. Its background is based on previous experiences that bond these individual and collective practices: shootings, film’s retrospectives, workshops, festivals and other events that take place in our community. This whole set of inputs is a key component, coupled with the suitable reaction of the local public who are eager to rejoice at the "seventh art" and to enjoy a festival as a space for exchange, dialogue and circulation of cultural goods.

The accompanied loneliness
The global existential crisis, a product of a wild and violent capitalism based on the maximum exacerbation of ego that destroys social fabric and condemns sapiens to loneliness, has produced biotechnological phenomena such as virtual sex. And the webcam industry is the most expanding in that horizon.
Despite this, morality, as always, which allows massacres and genocides in the name of God, marginalizes and stigmatizes people who professionally practice explicit sex in front of a camera.
The greater the development, the greater the loneliness. This neoliberal-neofeudal system, built against our collaborative nature, where aggressive competition, violence, and limitless ego prevail, has generated an alienated society, self-absorbed, incapable of organically communicating with others.
And it is these individuals, unable to find company naturally, who spend hours and hours in front of a screen, spending fortunes in the global south, with the sole objective of having an interlocutor who saves them from their lonely hell.
That is why this 5th edition of our Erotic and Post-porn Film Bogotá Showcase is dedicated to those who professionally offer their virtual companionship services. One cannot be stigmatized and excluded, who offers solace, companionship, and dialogue, apart from sex, to people that the system has communicationally mutilated.
The film showcase will feature a selection that addresses the issue in all its complexity, far from inquisitorial moralism and absurd prejudices.
On the academic side, we will offer talks and workshops, led by professionals with experience in the field, to share their experiences on how to improve performances on camera, how to build characters, or how to apply basic psychology notions that lead to better presentations and better performance with less effort.
Through this initiative, we want to provide tools to industry individuals so that, far from feeling excluded, they empower themselves and seek autonomy that allows them not to have to sell their labor to exploitative studios but to be the owners of their time, work, mind, and body.
Welcome, web cam companions. We are proud to dedicate this edition of our Showcase to you and, hopefully, contribute to your self-affirmation and emancipation.
Cheers!
