Between September 2025 and June 2026, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation presents the film cycle ‘Power and Glory’, focusing on documentary cinema.
This documentary film cycle presents 15 films organised into three sections, each focused on the work of a director: Roberto Rossellini / ‘Figures’, Éric Rohmer / ‘Experimental’, and Frederick Wiseman / ‘Institutions’.
The cycle opens on 14 September in the Grand Auditorium with a conversation between the curator and Maria Filomena Molder, followed by the 1954 classic Journey to Italy, directed by Roberto Rossellini.
The second installment opens on 25 January with a debate between Pedro Mexia and Joaquim Sapinho on the film My Night at Maud’s (1969). We wrap up the cycle with Frederick Wiseman’s Ex-Libris (2017), introduced by Pedro Mexia and António M. Feijó.
