MUVI Lisboa '14: a music-oriented indie film festival!

Ever since independent film festivals got a hold on Lisbon's audience, music sections have been a very popular choice, with a lot of sold-out screenings throughout the years. Given this, a film festival solely based in music-related features and shorts should already been created by now. Well, it's finally here: Muvi Lisboa '14 is the first indie film festival in Lisbon exclusively focused on music.
Including a nice choice of documentaries (feature and short films) and music videos, both portuguese and international and sorted by competitive and non-competitive sections, Muvi Lisboa has all the ingredients to become a desired event by music lovers as well as film buffs. If you're in town next week, be sure not to miss its first edition, from the 3rd to the 7th of September.

Check out the festival's website and its schedule.
