Hollywood Brazilian Film Festival brings together two cultures to showcase the best that Brazil has to offer. Drawing on the allure of Hollywood as the crossroads of culture, the festival aims to become both a cultural and business center, with chances for cultural-creative and commercial exchange, taking advantage of the presence of foreign film directors, casting directors and the best of Brazilian film production, as well as financiers and business people.
The 19 films being shown at the 3rd HBFF are independent productions which show the diversity of Brazil through the various languages, with Portuguese, English, Spanish, French, Danish, Polish, Hebrew, and Hindi being represented.
Special films being featured include Avos, a film through the eyes of a 10 year old child presented with two special birthday gifts, as well as Bollywood Dream, a comedy about three Brazilian women trying to make it in Indian cinema.
