Since 2011, the artist Tânia Dinis* has developed a research and creation work about the intimacy, family archive, document, time-image-memory-dream correlation. These specific works are inserted in the "Family Archive" series, which is in constant development and they crossed diverse perspectives and artistic expressions as the photography, performance art and cinematography. 

During the month of March, we promoted the viewing of three of his film works. The second session introduces her last short film, held in 2018, "ARMINDO E A CÂMARA ESCURA [ARMINDO AND THE DARK CHAMBER]".
