Cinema no Estendal/ Cinema on the Washing Line is a cinema for the streets of Lisbon, in its 4th year and 6th edition. We celebrate the stairs, the washing lines, the neighbourhood life, the art and the underwear of the neighbours.

    Cinema no Estendal ("on the washing line") is a fantastic and unique initiative to bring cinema to the most unexpected places and traditional neighborhoods in Lisbon (so far).

    When open air cinema comes to you (and not the other way around), with a well cared for curation of engaging documentaries, experimental narratives, fiction shorts and music videos.

    Inspiring!
