Os Filhos de Lumière (Lumière’s Children) is a cultural association founded in 2000 by a group of filmmakers, dedicated to the development of cinema outreaching programs, inside and outside of school, combining the movie analysis to the practice, gathering filmmakers, teachers, children and teens, schools and cultural spaces around this art. The association has been participating, since it was founded, in several meetings, seminars and reflection conferences about the pedagogy and methods of initiation to film, in Portugal, France, Belgium, Italy and Brazil. This activity has been developed in partnership with entities carrying similar goals through joint projects such as “O Mundo à Nossa Volta” (The World Around Us) which is integrated in the pedagogic program le Cinéma, cents ans de jeunesse (Cinema, One Hundred Years of Youth) and made possible in collaboration with the Portuguese Cinematheque just like “O Primeiro Olhar” (The First Glance) workshops; the “Bordils-Moita” project, developed between Portugal and Spain under the European Program “Coménius Régio” (2012-2014) and more recent European projects such as Moving Cinema (2014-2016), CinEd, since 2015, the Shortcut and Academias Gulbenkian do Conhecimento, since 2018. In 2013, Os Filhos de Lumière moved its headquarters to the former school “Escola das Gaivotas”, in Lisboa, where it shares cultural place "Rua das Gaivotas 6" with Teatro Praga thanks to Lisboa city. This place is a network of associations and a cultural space soon to be opened to the community, where there will be carried out screenings and meetings between the participants to reflect and discuss their experience and implemented projects. |

The Cinemateca Portuguesa-Museu do Cinema is the national organisation, under the supervision of the Minister of Culture, whose mission is to safeguard and disseminate film heritage. It was founded in the early 1950s by one of the pioneers of European film libraries, Manuel Félix Ribeiro, and became an autonomous institution in 1980. Since 1956, the Cinemateca has been a member of the International Federation of Film Archives (FIAF). Also in 1956, the Cinemateca's first dedicated screening room was inaugurated. In 1996, the Cinemateca opened a modern conservation centre on the outskirts of Lisbon, which is now the base for all preservation, technical research and access activities, including the use of new technologies. The Cinemateca has played a decisive role in the creation and development of the network of European institutions dedicated to the preservation of European film heritage, co-founding the European Association of Cinematheques (ACE) and participating in various programmes, such as the international educational project CINED, launched under the Cinema-Education axis and supported under the "Creative Europe" programme (MEDIA programme of the European Union), which Cinemateca has been leading since 2020. |
