Brazilian movie lovers! Get ready for four days of Brazilian Seventh Art! The Embassy of Brazil organized, in collaboration with Ms. Ilda Santiago, the artistic director of Rio International Film Festival, the First Brazilian Film Week. The festival will take place in Washington, DC, at the Greenberg Theater, from November 15th through 18th. Admission will be free, and on a first-come, first-served basis. So, get there early!! Show times can be checked at the site of the Embassy of Brazil.
And for the fans of Brazilian actors and directors, there is an extra reason not to miss this event: most of the films will be presented to the public by some of the Brazilian stars. So, get your camera ready!
I took a look at the movies that will be on the big screen and I am very curious about the short movie "Yansan". It is a Manga cartoon about Yansan, the orixá of the wind and storms, and her love adventures with two other orixás, Xangô and Ogum. Can you imagine an African myth told by Brazilians in a Japanese cartoon? This could only happen in a creative Brazilian mind!!
I hope to be one of many people seating with a popcorn bag in one hand and a can of Guaraná in the other, enjoying the sounds, colors and inventiveness of Brazil! And with luck, you will be there by my side!
