Film in the Present Tense

In spite of claims of its obsolescence, analog film is still alive. It continues to exist as an inimitable artistic medium, put to use in myriad forms around the world. Nonetheless, in the context of our ever-expanding digital landscape, analog film faces new challenges that have forced it into a process of deep transformation. What steps do we need to take to guarantee that analog film will remain as a living-breathing medium? What are the alternatives to the idea of film as an obsolete, historical object? What new forms will film take and what will that mean for the culture that surrounds it? How do we keep analog film in the Now?

Organizado pelo colectivo LaborBerlin, Film in the Present Tense reúne, de 20 a 22 de Outubro, cineastas, artistas, programadores e representantes de entidades museológicas (entre eles, Tiago Ganhão pela Cinemateca Portuguesa) para discutir o futuro da película "no modo presente".
