CINALFAMA CATALOGUE
Curated VOD space for independent and auteur cinema
The long-term digital extension of the Lisbon International Film Festival. A curated space for films that rarely find continuity within dominant distribution systems, presented with time.
About the Catalogue
The Cinalfama Catalogue is not a commercial streaming platform, but a curated cultural infrastructure. Films are presented with time, context, and critical care, allowing them to continue their life beyond the festival.
Organized through thematic curatorial lines, the Catalogue reflects the Cinalfama universe: personal cinema, urban identities, intercultural dialogue, sound practices, and author-driven animation.
Curated Lines
Personal & Cultural Identities
Works that reflect on identity, belonging, and intercultural encounters through essay, observation, and sound.
City in Film
Films that explore urban life, identity, and transformation through the lived experience of the city.
Cinalfama Educational Programme
Films created through the festival’s educational initiatives, where cinema becomes learning and collective expression.
Stories and Oralities from Alfama
Cinema rooted in memory and oral history, preserving the voices and lived stories of Alfama.
How to Watch
Films from the Cinalfama Catalogue are presented through curated online screenings hosted on Vimeo. Access may be free or ticketed, depending on the program, and films are always contextualized within their curatorial frame.
