The II Coriolis Meeting arises from the desire of a group of cultural organizations from Porto and the North Region to continue a movement of collaboration and learning, which began in 2020.
After the 1st meeting held in January 2023, at the Coliseu do Porto Ageas, under the theme of Audience Mediation, the 2nd meeting aims to create a space for sharing, reflection and joint learning about Sustainability in the Performing Arts. An informal one-day journey, made up of workshops, conversations, panel discussions and film viewing, to experiment and discuss more conscious and – socially and environmentally – also more responsible practices.

Águas do Pastaza: documentary and conversation with Inês T. Alves and Figura Nacional
It is along the Pastaza River, which travels from Ecuador to Peru, that we find the Achua community that Inês T. Alves visited without necessarily intending to make a film. But the curiosity and independence of the children she met — fluent in fishing, cooking or crafts — gave rise to this work. Documentary, Portugal, 2022, 61′
