Brazilian Free Spirit Film Festival
The festival is the last leg of "Mostra do Filme Livre 2017", the largest independent film festival in Brazil, which hold permanent screenings in Rio, São Paulo, Belo Horizonte and Niterói, and is partnered with film societies ("Cineclubes") in more than 90 cities throughout the country. On Sept. 29, the opening night, the festival will take place together with the monthly meeting of the Brazilian Association of Researchers in Boston (PUB-Boston). During the 3-day event, we will show a total of 10 films from Brazilian veterans like Júlio Bressane to new names of Brazilian independent cinema such as Valentina Homem and Arthur Tuoto. All films will have English subtitles. Films were produced in 2015 and 2016 and most are US premieres. This is an uncommon opportunity to watch the latest of Brazilian independent cinema. Opening night will have the presence of Guilherme Whitaker, festival curator.
