New York, Miami will join to celebrate 27th Inffinito Brazilian Film Festival

The Inffinito Brazilian Film Festival is part of the South Florida cultural events calendar and has become a tradition in Miami, where the annual festival has been hosted for almost three decades. It also is a festival that reaches New York holding events at SummerStage in Central Park, Commodore Barry Park in Brooklyn, and Rainey Park in Astoria, Queens.

In 2023, the festival celebrates 27 years of milestones and achievements thanks to the efforts of Inffinito Arts Foundation creators and directors Adriana L. Dutra, Claudia Dutra and Viviane B. Spinelli.

Inffinito has hosted 94 festivals in 13 countries, had 68 concerts by renowned Brazilian musicians, and presented more than 2,000 Brazilian films.

There will be concerts, films, outdoor cinema, parties, tributes ad lots of Brazilian culture — in person and virtually -– througout American territory.

The selection of 60 films, including documentaries and features, premiering in the U.S., seek to reflect the plurality of Brazilian audiovisual production, that influenced by the country’s current situation is making a profound sociopolitical reflection, stimulating the rescue of memories and empowering ideas and thoughts.
