Throughout the history of motion pictures we have witnessed a complex debate around the reciprocal relationship it establishes with other arts, that is mostly defined by creative efforts and experimental gestures in both domains, permeated by the dialogic quality of how those other arts express themselves in cinema and the latter transmutes into the former. From advocating the aesthetic value of a moving image to more hybrid forms built on new benchmarks, cinema dwells on a constantly reciprocating relationship with other arts which takes up many forms, whether because there is tension among them and one is present in the other, or ultimately because borders are blurred. This is a research field that can count on methodological processes capable of structuring scientific discourse due to the operational possibilities of intertextuality and artistic creation’s dialogic quality.
The international meeting Cinema and other Arts will take place for the seventh time at Universidade da Beira Interior on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th of december of 2023. Its main focus is to promote the debate/reflection around current issues related to the dialogue between different art forms whose point of contact is the cinema. Seeking to provide interdisciplinary and intercultural reading possibilities, researchers from several scientific areas currently engaged with these issues, albeit in different disciplinary domains or research stages, are invited to participate, especially from the areas of Film Studies, Art Studies and Cultural studies

Daniel Bernardes
Daniel Bernardes has established himself as one of the most eclectic and creative musicians of his generation. From his formative path linked to classical music and jazz, a discography emerged where the spontaneity of the improvised note dialogues with the certainty of the note written in projects such as Crossfade Ensemble, "Liturgy of the Birds" in partnership with Drumming GP or "Beethoven.. . Reminiscences" with Coro Ricercare. As a composer, he writes for some of the main national soloists and ensembles, also assuring the musical direction of theatrical productions for the Teatro Nacional Dona Maria II and Teatro do Bairro or more recently in the centenary show of Amália Rodrigues for the Centro Cultural de Belém. He makes his film debut at the invitation of João Botelho, with whom he collaborates since "Peregrinação" and on television he writes the soundtrack for "A Espia", an Ukbar production for RTP.
