Off Screen is the designation of the Summer Course that will take place during the MDOC – International Documentary Film Festival of Melgaço
The 2023 summer course focuses on the general theme of the Melgaço International Documentary Festival – Identity, Memory and the Border and addresses as a specific theme AUTOBIOGRAPHIC CINEMA / AUTOBIOGRAPHIES IN CINEMA based on the review of the State of the Art and research projects in the Arts, Cinema and the Humanities. It also seeks to articulate and bring into contact creative experiences from different sources – from filmmakers, scientific and artistic associations and researchers from universities and cultural producers, countries and continents.
The Summer Course is an initiative of AO NORTE, through its CINEMA AND DIGITAL NARRATIVES STUDIES GROUP and the ID+ Institute for Research in Design, Media and Culture, through the CINEMAS Group and in collaboration with the Municipality of Melgaço, the Federal University of Goiás (UFG) - Nucleus of Autobiographical Artistic Practices (NuPAA), Universidad Rey Juan Carlos (URJC), University of Beira Interior, Polytechnic Institute of Cávado Ave (IPCA), CNRS, MIRA FORUM.
