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.
