The Moinho Cine Fest Best Film Award pays tribute to Álvaro Martins, a master of the Portuguese guitar and a native of Padrão da Légua, in Custóias. With a career that began in childhood and spanned decades of dedication to music, he accompanied some of the greatest names in fado and left behind more than one hundred published works as a Portuguese guitar performer, composer, and lyricist. A symbol of artistic rigor, sensitivity, and authenticity, Álvaro Martins helped project Portuguese culture beyond national borders. Naming this award in his honor celebrates a legacy of excellence and inspires filmmakers to pursue the same creative integrity that defined his life and work. For further information about his career, the documentary “The Barber Guitarist”, directed by André Almeida Rodrigues, as well as the corresponding Wikipedia article, are recommended.
