The Open Air Cinema is coming back to Solar in August
During the Fridays of August 2025, at 9:30 PM, the courtyard of Solar – Cinematic Art Gallery will host open-air cinema sessions as part of a special cycle programmed in collaboration with the Cineclube de Vila do Conde and Curtas Vila do Conde – International Film Festival.
Alongside a selection of the Best of the 33rd Curtas Vila do Conde, highlighting some of this edition’s award-winning films, feature films will also be screened, such as: Saravah, a vibrant musical portrait of Brazil, directed by Pierre Barouh, featuring Maria Bethânia, Paulinho da Viola, Pixinguinha, and Baden Powell; Le Deuxième Acte (Second Act), the latest absurd comedy by Quentin Dupieux, which opened the 2024 Cannes Film Festival; and L’Événement le Plus Important Depuis que l’Homme a Marché sur la Lune (A Slightly Pregnant Man), by Jacques Demy, a satirical fantasy blending humour and social critique with the characteristic charm of the French filmmaker.
A diverse programme, ranging from contemporary to classic cinema, invites audiences to rediscover the pleasure of watching films outdoors, in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere.
Tickets are available at www.bol.pt at the price of €4 per session (free for members of the Vila do Conde Cineclub).
