One of the greatest films in Portuguese cinema, O Bobo<\/em> is set four years after the 25 April Revolution. The story revolves around a theatre director who sells weapons to finance his play, a stage adaptation of Alexandre Herculano\u2019s O Bobo<\/em>. With extraordinary skill, Jos\u00e9 \u00c1lvaro Morais creates parallels and contrasts with other forms of artistic expression and paints a broad generational portrait.<\/p>\n under the sign of the double [sob o signo do duplo]<\/strong><\/p>\n The double can be defined as \u2018a self that is simultaneously another\u2019: something which, defying the laws of physics, is not only possible in cinema, but is a theme for which cinema has harboured a particular fondness since its earliest days. Cinema no P\u00e1tio presents four proposals centred on the idea of the other-self, between the present and the absent, the reflection and the distortion, and how they all connect to an image of damnation: the double in cinema almost always reflects the accursed, the deception, the perdition. Eduardo Brito works in film, writing and photography. In film, he wrote and directed the feature film A Sibila<\/em>, based on the novel by Agustina Bessa-Lu\u00eds. He has directed several short films, such as Pen\u00fambria<\/em>, Declive<\/em> and \u00darsula<\/em>. He has written the screenplays for several of Rodrigo Areias\u2019s feature films, including O Pior Homem de Londres<\/em>. In photography and writing, he explores the themes of truth, fiction and memory, as well as the relationship between text and image, as seen, for example, in the books East Ending<\/em> and Procura Nada<\/em>. Eduardo holds a Master\u2019s degree in Artistic and Museological Studies from the Faculty of Fine Arts at the University of Porto. He specialised in screenwriting at the Escuela Internacional de Cine y TV in Cuba. He teaches as a guest lecturer at FBAUP, where he is a PhD candidate in Fine Arts, and at FLUP.<\/p>\n curated by<\/strong> eduardo brito<\/p>\n supported by\u00a0<\/strong>portuguese republic – culture, youth and sports \/ general direction of the arts. portuguese contemporary art network (rpac). rtcp – network of portuguese theaters and cinemas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 1987 \u00b7 portugal \u00b7 2 hours \u00b7 m\/12 One of the greatest films in Portuguese cinema, O Bobo is set four years after the 25 April Revolution.
