Abstract(s)

The cinematography of Manoel de Oliveira (1908-2015) confronted many setbacks before the filmmaker's worldwide consecration. In particular, his biggest difficulties were associated with the absence of financing for productions until the mid-1970s. After that period, from the 1980s, the filmmaker benefited from innumerable foreign investments for his films and, through such context, he enjoyed the internationalization of his work. This trajectory of the filmography of Oliveira led it to the progressive distancing of the notion of "national cinema" and the proportional adherence to aspects of the so-called "transnational cinema".
