Arquiteturas Film Festival

How can cinema help us reflect on the urban age we live in and the ways in which cities and territories are shaped by today’s social, political and environmental challenges?

The 13th edition of the Arquiteturas Film Festival offers an in-depth exploration of the theme “Urban Age”, examining the role of cinema in interpreting and transforming contemporary cities. The programme focuses on the multiple dimensions of urban life—from housing and public space to infrastructure and cultural identities—using film as a critical and sensitive lens through which to understand the challenges of our time.

The Arquiteturas Film Festival, organised by INSTITUTO, is a platform dedicated to the discussion and dissemination of architecture through films, installations, debates and urban walks. The programme is structured into three sections—Official, Guests and Special Portugal—and takes place at various venues across the city of Porto, including the Batalha Cinema Centre, the Casa Comum of the University of Porto and INSTITUTO.
