Conversations with the makers

Vera Kolodzig

Vera is one of Portugal's most recognisable actresses and television presenters. Born in Lisbon and raised in Cascais, she trained in contemporary theatre at the University of Essex before a career spanning more than two decades of Portuguese film, television and stage — from leading roles in some of the country's best-known series to her own work in front of and behind the camera, and in her podcast, Kológica. She brings that storyteller's instinct to the Cascais Ventures Podcast, sitting down with the directors, artists and cultural leaders behind the cultural projects we help bring to life.
