Fortress of Sagres hosts free cineconcert about tuna fishing [video]

Postal do Algarve12 September 2026 at 18:10

The Fortress of Sagres hosts on September 20, at 20:00, the free cineconcert "Almadrava", dedicated to tuna fishing in the Algarve. The single outdoor session is organized by Cinemalua – Associação Cultural, with support from CCDR Algarve and cultural patronage from Real Atunara and Martinhal Sagres Algarve.

The event presents two documentaries from the RTP Archive, "A Almadrava" and "O Copejo", made in 1968 and 1969 by Hélder Mendes, which portray the tradition of tuna fishing seine nets (armação) in the region. To these archival images are added unseen footage by director João Marco, who also signs the editing, the final text and the event poster.

The cineconcert, presented under the expression "Tuna, the eternal traveler of the oceans", combines the cinematographic records with four original compositions written by composer Arsénio Martins specifically for the new footage: "Almadrava", "The Labyrinth of Waters", "The Fluctuation of Anchors" and "The Balance of Species".

The live accompaniment will be performed by five musicians from the Arsénio Martins Ensemble: Arsénio Martins on piano, Paulo Lopes on saxophones and flute, Daniela Pinhel on oboe, Daniela Vieira on bassoon and Bárbara Santos on cello.

Why this matters

Residents and visitors to the Algarve have access to a free cultural session that combines historic film heritage about tuna fishing with live music, contributing to the valorization of local traditions. The initiative promotes the Fortress of Sagres as a cultural space and involves patronage from companies such as Real Atunara and Martinhal Sagres.

Critique: Between the diva and the divan, Demi Lovato makes fans happy

Demi Lovato performed at Rock in Rio as one of the main acts on the Mundo stage, promoting her new double album "It's not that deep," which marks a transition from the furious rock of her previous work to dance pop. The critique highlights that the artist took the stage with a pop diva posture, accompanied by dancers, sensualizing to songs like "Fast" and "Kiss," and managed to mobilize her fandom, who followed along with phones in hand. The presentation alternated between more energetic moments and confessional numbers, such as "Heart attack," a style for which Lovato is known.
