World Cinema @ DCU: Grand Tour (Portugal, 2024)

Our next film is Grand Tour (2024) by Portuguese director Miguel Gomes for which he won best director at Cannes. This is a film with a postcolonial message presented in a light-hearted tone with some comedy and romance! It has been described in a review as a "colonial era hide-and-seek" and I think it lives to this description.

This film will be screened in Portuguese with English subtitles.

World Cinema @ DCU is a weekly film club open to all cinema enthusiasts. Screened films are expected to have cultural depth, i.e. they have something to say about where they were made. This is a free screening followed by an engaging discussion. Tea, coffee and snacks will be available, but feel free to bring your own! If you have feedback or recommendations for future screenings, don't hesitate to contact the event organizer.

If you're driving, you can park on campus in DCU Glasnevin's multi-storey car park (detailed info on parking is available here).
