Lisbon Film Rendezvous ()

Festival start: 17 June 2021      Festival end: 20 June 2021

Our aim is to screen films that might be overlooked by the international film festival circuit.

Lisbon Film Rendezvous places a great deal of stock in having its selected work screened live.

As the health situation worsens in Lisbon (and all across Europe) we are faced
with the difficult situation of not having the legal conditions to show the films publicly in November, as we intended.

Lisbon Film Redenzvous wants to live up to your screening expectations. So we have decided to postpone our event date to June 2021 and extend it's program to accommodate all the best films we have received.

All the approved films have their place booked in the next edition’s program.

PRIZES
Lisbon Film Rendezvous is an international showcase . No awards are bestowed since we aim to promote independent films and creative networking.
The LFR Laurel and Certificate will be send, via email, to all the screened filmmmakers.
