Doc’s Kingdom 2024: Odemira, 19-23 Nov.

WAYS OF LISTENING

programmed by Stoffel Debuysere

 

Doc’s Kingdom will be back in Odemira from 19 to 23 November 2024, with a programme of screenings, debates, installations and sound performances. Under the title “Ways of Listening”, this year’s programme, curated by Stoffel Debuysere, aims to counter the traditional focus on visuality by developing critical perspectives on documentary from the point of view of sound. In order to imagine and discuss the political and ethical possibilities and implications of the sonic, Doc’s Kingdom will be deployed as a space for collective study that insists on more than meets the eye; a space for viewing and re-viewing cinema in the key of listening.

 

Guest artists and filmmakers: Trinh T. Minh-ha, Trevor Mathison & Gary Stewart, Ernst Karel, Matilde Meireles, Alison O’Daniel, Susana de Sousa Dias

 

The seminar is held in English. The registration fee includes access to all the screenings, activities, debates and meals (except breakfast).
