CineMagia

CineMagia – Cinema and Philosophy at the Library is a program for children of all ages that combines fun and learning. With a schedule that intersperses short film screenings with animation workshops and poster creation, CineMagia aims to stimulate creativity and help children think about important values.

On December 14, CineMagia presents, in collaboration with animation filmmaker Catarina Calvino Gil, the workshop “Secret Friends”. The holiday season is approaching, bringing with it the excitement and desire to give something special and unique to those we love. In this workshop, we will create personalized and dynamic postcards, full of color, drawings, and heartfelt messages—perfect for giving as gifts during Christmas. Join us for this fun activity! Who knows, you might also receive a small gift!

This program is developed by Marta Fiolić and Maria Irene Aparício, from the Cinema & Politics: Philosophical Approaches working group, and by illustrators and animators Catarina Gil and Ana Dias, as part of the activities of the Laboratory of Cinema & Philosophy (CineLab) and with the support of the Laboratory of Dissemination (OutLab) in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut.

Event supported by the Foundation for Science and Technology (Fundação para a Ciência e para a Tecnologia) of the Portuguese Ministry of Education and Science under the projects UIDB/00183/2020 and UIDP/00183/2020.
