Walter Salles distinguished with FIAF Award
Walter Salles, Brazilian filmmaker and member of the jury of LEFFEST in 2018, has received
the prestigious FIAF Award presented by the International Federation of Film
Archives.
JOSÉ BARRIAS (1944-2020). IN BETWEEN QUIETUDE AND DISQUIET.
Back in 2011, José Barrias integrated the jury of LEFFEST, then known as Lisbon & Estoril Film
Festival. Author of an artistic practice where various languages crisscross (the
languages of drawing, of painting, of photography, of installation, of “assemblage”),
Barrias was the expression of the very intersection that characterised the
festival from the beginning.
José María Riba (1952-2020)
José María Riba (1952-2020), who for many years was a member of LEFFEST’s selection committee, has passed away last Friday, in Paris, where he
lived.
Luís Noronha da Costa (1942-2020)
Back in 2012, LEFFEST kicked off at Estoril Congress Center with an exhibition by
Luís Noronha da Costa: The Representation of Images, a series of
paintings and an art installation paying tribute to Cézanne, delivered by the
plastic artist and painter for the occasion. Several of the festival’s guests
attended the exhibition opening, such as actresses Fanny Ardant and Ingrid
Caven, and fashion designer Emanuel Ungaro.
