The industry screenings are private sessions of new projects from Porto, northern Portugal, and Galicia, looking for a world premiere. These showcase screenings are meant for festival programmers and artistic directors, sales agents, distributors, film fund directors and other professionals attending the festival.

Organised by Porto/Post/Doc in partnership with Filmaporto - Film Commission, and with the support of AICEP - Portuguese Trade & Investment Agency, it is an activity that aims to give visibility to the most recent Portuguese and Galician cinema, and to promote contact between directors and producers with professionals from the international film industry.

Access to these screenings is by invitation only.
