For OI , giving support to the 13th edition of It´s
All True – International Documentary Film
Festival means to contribute to enhancing
an aspect of Brazilian cinema that is in line
with one of the company’s top priorities – to
nurture the cultural diversity of our country
by fostering regional values and the dialogue
between different world views.
Besides the International Competition, the 2008
edition of It´s All True includes the Brazilian
Competition of feature, medium and short
length documentaries, a Brazilian documentary
retrospective and special programs, such as
seminars, debates and lectures. Also worthy of
note is the Festival’s estimated attendance based
on last year’s edition, which reached 28,500
people, and the screening of 141 documentaries.
In a country that has finally acknowledged
the importance of preserving its memory, the
stories told by documentaries can fill the gap for
events of fragmented narrative, while providing
new visions and possibilities that shape our
perceptions of the world.
As it pledges its support to the It’s All True
Festival, OI makes a decisive contribution to the
development of new audiences and qualified
cinema professionals. And, on a broader scale, the
company takes another step towards fulfilling a
key component of its mission, namely, to raise
citizen awareness.
