AND ENJOY THE FESTIVAL EVEN MORE
The Kino Brasil Festival, which we dreamed of and built since the first year, is and always will be a matter of our hearts. It represents both the result and the source of our energy. We believe that in its ten years of existence it has become a source of energy and knowledge for you as well as a meeting place with like-minded acquaintances and new friends. We work all year on the preparation of the festival.
We are a team of volunteers who love Brazil and Brazilian cinema. We get finance from public sources, but we often have to make compromises. If you would like to support us and experience the festival to the fullest, you can send us any amount to account number 2700638194/2010.
Thank you for every support, we really appreciate it and look forward to seeing you at Bio Oko!

Petra

Gabriela
Gábi was at the birth of the festival in 2014 and, with her love for art and Brazil, immediately immersed herself in the preparation of the program and the weaving of ideas that shape the festival.

Romana
Romča joined the organization of the film festival for the second year after returning from Brazil. At first she helped with PR activities, gradually she got into writing grants and their annual billing, timing subtitles, etc. It would not have been possible without Romča. He is always there when a helping hand is needed and does not hesitate to go around cafes with posters or spend several hours painting cardboard for cinema decoration.

Tomáš
Tomáš has been with the festival since its beginnings. His knowledge of Prague cinemas, the music scene and overall cultural conditions was essential for the production of the festival. Without his careful quality control of the films, we would be lost. Tomáš is also a heartthrob and someone who always brings a different, fresh perspective to the team.

Tatiana
Tatiana has been working for the Kino Brasil festival since 2024. As a marketing and project management professional, she contributes to the project by establishing partnerships, marketing, and planning accompanying events. What she enjoys most about the festival is promoting Brazilian culture in the Czech Republic through art and bringing a new perspective on Brazil.
