The 2020 edition of #Doclisboa had previously announced its focus programme on work & labour. Now, Under the title BODY OF WORK, its full programme has been announced. In partnership with European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA), the programme seeks to pose important questions and stimulate debate on work and labour – a central thematic in our lives.
The BODY OF WORK selection of ten films will be screen at Cinema São Jorge, Lisbon, during the first session of the festival – 22 October to 1 November, and will simultaneously be broadcast on DAFilms.com. On October 28, from 3 pm to 4.30 pm (UTC +0), Doclisboa and EU-OSHA will also hold «Thinking Labour Practices Through Film», a discussion on the relationship between cinema, work, and its cinematographic representations that will take place online.
