COMPLETING 60 YEARS OF ACTIVITY, BNDES reaffirms its compromise to Brazilian cultural production and continues to support a series of projects capable of associating culture and development.

An important segment for the strengthening of the economy of culture, the cinematic sector stands out for building a chain of production capable of generating work and income, as well as its importance in constructing a symbolic heritage of the Brazilian people.

In the case of documentary cinema, the contribution of the genre to the understanding of the time in which we live as well as the challenges encountered by contemporary society is notable.

For this reason, BNDES once again sponsors It's All True – International Documentary Film Festival – a totally free event that takes the best documentaries to the audiences of Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Brasília.

Screening close to 80 never before seen productions from 30 countries, the festival includes a national selection of works from every region of Brazil, in addition to the It's All True/BNDES Program this year.

Oriented by THE me "Cinema and Development", the program will promote debates and film screenings about the sociocultural reality of Brazil at Museu da República in Rio de Janeiro and Cinemateca Brasileira in São Paulo.

With the expansion of its support to the production of Brazilian documentaries through the annual announcement of selection of film projects and the sponsorship of festivals like It's All True, BNDES aims to create space for non-fictional production and to consolidate the market for this cinematic genre in our country.
