Miami's Brazilian population is a dynamic community that turns out in
force each year to support the BRAZILIAN FILM FESTIVAL with screenings
at theaters in Miami Beach including the Colony and Miami Beach Cinematheque. Thousands of fans line up to see the latest imported
comedies, dramas and documentaries as well as special screenings that
pay tribute to the most popular actors and directors working in Brazil
today.
Based at the Colony Theater on South Beach's Lincoln Road Mall, the
festival includes the MarketPlace panel discussions which focus upon the
business of getting films made and distributed across the globe. A
juried competition, the festival awards "Crystal Lens" prizes in 18
different categories to features, documentaries, short films and rising
stars. In addition to film presentations, dedicated after parties are
held at 10:30pm at a number of South Beach hotspots where your movie
ticket stub gets you in free.
If you are interested in attending the Brazilian Film Festival, advance
tickets can be purchased online at the official website or at the box
office on the day of the show. Schedules for the special screenings at
each venue can be reviewed in advance at the official website or by
