Great news, Brazilian Portuguese fans! The Inffinito Brazilian Film Festival may be coming to your city this summer. The festival will be in New York from June 5 – 12, in Vancouver from July 15 – 18, in Miami from August 13 – 21, and in London from September 1 – 5. This is not only an excellent opportunity to get a first peek at Brazilian movies, but also to meet Brazilians and practice your Portuguese.
The New York festival coming up next week will feature films from well known Brazilian directors, including Daniel Filho and José Joffily, and includes films from other festivals, like Elvis e Madona, which was featured at the Tribeca Film Festival. There will also be several events for the opening and closing of the festival, which will be sure to have some Brazilian stars. The New York festival will also feature a special tribute to Brasilía, and MPB singer Maria Gadú will be performing at the closing night event in Central Park.
