INTERNATIONAL FILMS SELECTED FOR CURTA CINEMA FESTIVAL 2017
Oct. 16, 2017
We at the 27th Rio de Janeiro International Film Internacional – Curta Cinema – are pleased to announce our Official Selection of international films for the 2017 edition. Due to a severe economic crisis that our country is going through and, in particular, the state of Rio de Janeiro, this year the festival had to resort to a reduced programming, with less films than previous editions and with a more concise selection. Unfortunately it was not possible to select all the films that we wanted to so we had to focus on our most traditional programs.
We believe that in 2017 the brazillian cultural production is going through a time that deserves observation, reflection and resilience. To announce the selection of these 71 short films energizes us to keep going. It is our understanding that making the festival happen even with all the difficulties is, above all, an act of resistance. We would like to thank all our supporters and all of the filmmakers, either selected or not, for the trust and affection that they have dedicated to Curta Cinema throughout the years: The mere existence of the Curta Cinema 2017 is a victory to all of us.
The 27th Rio de Janeiro International Film Internacional – Curta Cinema will be held from November 1st to 8th at: Cine Odeon - Centro Cultural Luiz Severiano Ribeiro, Centro Cultural da Justiça Federal – CCJF, Cinemateca do MAM, Cinemaison e Cine Arte UFF. Soon we will reveal all the programming information.
