2021
8th year 4.-7.11. | Bio Oko
After an unexpectedly challenging past year spent mainly in online mode, we returned to Bia Oko. A big screen with exceptional films, a touch of the tropics in November Prague, a unique atmosphere of the space, nice meetings and great drinks. Kino Brasil for the eighth time. From November 4 to 7. With this year's selection of films, as in previous years, we aimed for the best that Brazilian cinematography has offered in recent years. Great feelings, courageous actions, sensuality and despair are combined in enchanting scenes.
We looked into forest homes and small rooms in big city tenements. Kino Brasil presented relationship and personal dramas, a surreal film with a deep metaphor, a documentary from the contemporary Amazon and a brand new animated film for the whole family.

We will follow up the film with a debate with Mgr.

You will learn how the Native Americans live in Brazil, why Yanomami are exceptional in many ways, how their life in the rainforest is influenced by decisions from the capital city Brasilia or from the ongoing COP 26 summit.
