Among the cinema and video festivals that
captivate audiences, filmmakers, reviewers,
producers and actors across Brazil, there are
those that occupy a prominent position for their
tradition, while others are notorious for the quality
of their programming. There are also festivals which
stand out for taking movies and videos to people
who have hardly any access at all to the cinemagoing
experience. Finally, there are those festivals
which open up a myriad of possibilities for viewers
by presenting uniquely themed productions. All
this summed up, what we have today in Brazil is
a wide range of film exhibitions and festivals, thus
confirming the increased interest in the work of
our filmmakers and enabling a fruitful dialogue
between them and their audiences.
This year, It´s All True – International Documentary
Film Festival celebrates its 13th edition with enhanced
prestige as it continues to meet each of the criteria
that makes a festival an important event within the
Brazilian audiovisual scene. Its wealth of programming
opens up avenues for dialogue between creators and
the public. And It’s All True can claim its uniqueness
from the fact that it showcases only documentaries,
a film genre which is undergoing an impressive revival
both in Brazil and worldwide.
Petrobras, Brazil’s No. 1 audiovisual partner, once
again thoroughly supports It´s All True. Our
audiovisual policy is not limited to sponsoring
film production alone. We understand the
fundamental significance of promoting the works
of our filmmakers – whatever the format – and
encouraging the general public to have access to
those works. Furthermore, we are fully aware of
the importance of reaching new audiences. Film
exhibitions and festivals are a great way to achieve
this goal.
The largest company in Latin America and a major
Brazilian sponsor of arts and culture events, Petrobras
reasserts, through its cultural policy, its staunch
support for all segments of art creation
as well as its
commitment to the future.
