The documentary Os Olhos da Revolução (The Eyes of the Revolution), co-directed by Jacinto Godinho, CICANT researcher and associated Professor at ECATI – Lusófona University - Lisbon University Centre, and Carlos Oliveira, has been selected as one of the 15 finalists for the Gabo Prize 2025, the only Portuguese production to achieve this distinction.
Recognised as one of the most prestigious journalism awards in the Ibero-American world, the Gabo Prize is promoted by the Gabo Foundation, established by Nobel Prize-winning author Gabriel García Márquez. The award honours excellence, innovation, and a strong public interest mission in journalism across Portuguese- and Spanish-speaking countries.
The inclusion of Os Olhos da Revolução among this year's finalists reflects the documentary’s impactful storytelling and relevance in revisiting and reinterpreting historical memory through a journalistic lens.
The awards ceremony will take place in Bogotá, Colombia, from 24 to 27 July 2025, during the Gabo Festival 2025, a major event celebrating outstanding journalism, literature, and cultural thought in the region.
