Body-Buildings awarded in Austria

 

 

On June 18th, two of Body-Buildings producers, Henrique Pina and João Miguel Couto Duarte, traveled to Graz, in southern Austria, where the Dance on Screen film festival was taking place.

 

The Portuguese film, produced by Moonway Films, being the festival's special guest, was screened for three days. The presence of the two producers opened the opportunity for a Q&A session with the audience, on the night that marked the film's Austrian premiere.
