Batalha Centro de Cinema’s mission is to promote cultural knowledge and engagement through film and the moving image. Our programme includes retrospectives and themed cycles, with a focus on contemporary practices and the connections between film and other arts. Central to our activities is our wish to nurture film culture, via education, publishing, training, and debate.
As well as putting forward new ways of making and thinking about film, in particular by Portuguese artists and filmmakers, we aim to celebrate cinema in all of its complexity and historical diversity, in an open dialogue with all audiences.
It is part of the Department of Cinema and Moving Image at da Ágora - Cultura e Desporto do Porto, E.M.
