Filmaporto returns to Batalha Centro de Cinema with Serenata a Tr\u00eas, in which cinema, friendship and artistic exchange bring together Jo\u00e3o Pedro Amorim, Olivier Cheval and Yohei Yamakado in the same screening, on Friday 13 March, at 7.15pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presented by the three directors, the screening offers a direct dialogue with the audience, drawing on creative processes, geographical journeys and affinities nurtured over time. In Nature\u2019s Spite<\/em>, by Jo\u00e3o Pedro Amorim, is an inter-species tragicomedy that traces the arc of nature\u2019s resistance to human domination. From a dream of filming a poem of revenge against a flower, to the cycles of creativity, exploitation and rebirth that structure the world, the film questions the very idea of \u201cnature\u201d, dismantling facile romanticisations and exposing persistent tensions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Letters to My Friend Yohei Yakamodo From His Homeland<\/em>, Olivier Cheval draws inspiration from the absence of his friend, who hasn\u2019t been back to Japan for eight years, to film, in 16 mm, a journey to his motherland. The result is a diary in the form of letters, an intimate gesture that revisits places, memories and emotions, using cinema as a means of overcoming distance and building a living archive of a friendship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yohei Yamakodo\u2019s own Autumn Clothes<\/em> follows a woman who, on visiting a friend at her studio in a seaside town, comes across the book Autumn Clothes<\/em>, by Japanese author Higuchi Ichiy\u014d, and begins reading it aloud. Reading becomes a delicate device for articulating literature, landscape and intimacy, building an atmosphere of suspense and careful listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Admission is free, subject to ticket collection on the day, limited to two tickets per person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
