Portuguese Film Festival: Film and Literature at The Ritzy

We are proud to be hosting the second Portuguese Film Festival in the UK. This year the festival is dedicated to the fertile relationship between Portuguese literature and the moving image; how Portuguese writers such as Saramago, Camilo de Castelo Branco and Eça de Queiroz have inspired filmmakers in and outside Portugal. 

From a preview of the award-winning MYSTERIES OF LISBON to a programme of outstanding shorts that includes Gabriel Abrantes' FRATELLI, this is a festival that strives to span the breadth of Portuguese literary adaptations on the big screen. Not to be missed!
