HOLLYWOOD, CA, June 01, 2011 (Press-News.org) With the theme IndieBrazil 2011, The Hollywood Brazilian Film Festival presented by LG Brazil will showcase selected feature and short films by up and coming Brazilian filmmakers. The 3rd annual edition of the festival will take place in the heart of Hollywood, California at the Egyptian Theater and Mann Chinese 6 Cinemas. See http://www.hbrfest.com for more information.
HBR FEST officially kicks off Wednesday, June 1st with an Opening Night Celebration at the Egyptian Theater featuring a star-studded red carpet and a tribute celebration to the career of Fernanda Montenegro, Brazil's most accomplished actress. Fernanda Montenegro received a leading actress Academy Award Nomination for her work in Central Station, and will make a rare visit to the USA for this special occasion. The evening also showcases the West Coast Premiere of the feature film RISCADO (Craft) and the short film RECIFE FRIO (Cold Tropics).
The 9 feature and 9 short films selected for this year's festival have something very meaningful in common: they are independent productions. Most were made with the support of federal and regional funds, but still, they each have a singular, original voice of their own. They are totally universal in their approach to the audience, miles away from any cliches we all know too well. Every feature, short, doc, and narrative moving image, captured in a myriad of formats, represents the newest crop of filmmaking flourishing in Brazil in the last few years. Several
The Hollywood Brazilian Film Festival and Market was created to bridge the gap between Hollywood, the world film community and the Latin American Film Industry. Since Hollywood is the film world's Mecca, our festival creates unparalleled business and creative opportunities, welcoming Hollywood studios, celebrities, executives, film schools, talent schools and students, as well as international executives representing businesses in Latin America.
