Private Contact

My name is Martim Lucas, a creative filmmaker passionate about cinema, visual storytelling, and artistic direction. With a background in Cinema and Television, I have developed skills in directing, editing, cinematography, and audiovisual production, always with a strong focus on cinematic aesthetics and emotional storytelling.

I am particularly interested in creating immersive visual experiences that combine creativity, atmosphere, and strong narrative identity.

Through my experience in media production, including work within television environments, I have strengthened my ability to adapt creatively, work under pressure, and contribute to professional audiovisual projects from concept development to final execution.

My ambition is to continue evolving as a filmmaker, exploring new creative formats and building projects that connect cinema, culture, and contemporary visual expression.

Further references

My creative work is shaped by a set of filmmakers whose approaches to cinema range from poetic realism to political and introspective storytelling. Key references include Pedro Senna Nunes, João César Monteiro, Asghar Farhadi, Jafar Panahi, Manoel de Oliveira, and Manuel Mozos, among others.

These influences reflect a strong interest in human complexity, visual restraint, narrative depth, and cinema as an expressive and reflective art form.
