2 of December 2024 The discovery of an ancient Roman city in the town of Tongobriga in Portugal prompted the local community to gather at the site from 2011-2017 to participate in plays and musical productions and other arts. These events have since been canceled as the location has been deemed an archeological site. That decision disregarded the history of the community in favor of the “selling” of the archaeological site by franchising the Património Cultural with shops selling T-shirts, a variety of souvenir items and charging a fee to enter the Roman part of the city. Bruno Miguel Resende will discuss the 40 years of archeological investigations, the effects on and extraction of the local community and his related work addressing these issues in Tongobriga through theater and the arts. Bruno Miguel Resende is an artist connected to Xamanism. He is a writer, actor, filmmaker, fire performer, and fakir. His commitment to truth caused several works to be censored. In cinema, he has achieved his own language without words, with 37 awards and 53 nominations.
