description This article begins with an analysis of Henrique de Senna Fernandes's work, *Cinema em Macau — Desde o Início do Século XX até à Década de 30*, and aims to identify the themes addressed and the style of writing. First published in the 1970s in the newspaper *Confluência*, it is his least-known work, with the title suggesting a study on cinema in Macau, an approach adopted by the author whose sources were Macau and Hong Kong newspapers. However, if cinema constitutes the core of the narrative, the author reveals himself to be passionate about people, recording the impact of cinema on society and on Macau as a collective entity, enriching the narrative with stories of the people of the Christian city and the Chinese bazaar. Moreover, the spatial coordinates are not confined to Macau, but rather extend to the interior of China and the city of Hong Kong. We conclude that the author did not deviate from the style and themes of his novels and short stories, as he continues to focus on the lived experiences of people in Macau, with cinema serving as a pretext to revisit the themes that permeate his entire oeuvre.
