The remaining festival programme is in line with the previous editions, distributed between the International Competition (this year broadened to third works), IndieJunior, IndieMusic, Director’s Cut, Independent Hero and Special Screenings. Within the Independent Hero, we pay tribute to two exciting filmmakers with markedly authorial worlds who have sought to renew the tradition of resolutely meandering narratives: the French film- maker Mia Hansen-Love and the North American Whit Stillman. We will present the complete retrospectives of their work - in Stillman’s case, this will also be the opportunity to discover him as none of his films have ever been screened in . Another way of IndieLisboa reinventing itself is precisely by not sitting back and seeking to move out of the cine- mas where the festival usually takes place, with a view to creating cinemagoers in places that are less connoted with film screenings (this year we applaud the entry of Cinema Ideal, which joins Culturgest, Cinema São Jorge and Cinemateca Portuguesa-Museu do Cinema). Within the Special Screenings, besides the usual importance awarded to Portuguese cinema, there are also more unique and “outside-the-format” events, such as the concert preceding the screening of Around the World in 50 Concerts, organised in collaboration with the fes- tival Os Dias da Música (which this year will focus on film music and will also take IndieJunior to CCB), or the presentation of the essential Concerning Violence in a screening followed by a discussion to be held at Aula Magna, in a partnership with the Rectory of the University of Lisbon. To close off, we would like to express our deep grati- tude to our partners and sponsors. First of all, we would like to thank the vital collaboration of our two co-pro- ducers (Culturgest and EGEAC). ICA, the Municipality of Lisbon and the MEDIA programme for their renewed support, which works as the structural basis of the fes- tival. Allianz, for having strengthened its investment as main sponsor of IndieLisboa, after an experiment in 2014 that proved to be mutually enriching. Finally, we would like to thank our various institutional and private part- ners, which would be impossible to name individually in this text. The sum total of this support, partnerships and collaborations allowed us to make this edition the faithful mirror of our dreams and ambitions. We hope you enjoy IndieLisboa 2015.

10 Independent Hero Mia Hansen-Løve Mia Hansen-Løve once said she had decided to start filming because she felt unha- ppy. However, it is not sadness that dominates her work, not even pessimism that drives her characters. On the contrary, the French director's films are touched, in equal measure, by light and shadow, by moments of great passion and melancholy. In other words, they are warm, true and profound portraits of people who seek to find a path and a place for their feelings.

Independent Hero Whit Stillman Whit Stillman is as a father figure for the present generation of North-American filmmakers: Wes Anderson, Noah Baumbach, Greta Gerwig, or even Lena Dunham (television is now a territory where Stillman begins to venture). These are early adul- thood portraits usually belonging to the high New York bourgeoisie (or what remains of it), diving in pleasure games, decoding explicit and repressed sexual desires and criticising not only a social status assessed by language and appearance but a cons- tant lure of deception.
