BrasilCine is the only Brazilian Film Festival taking place in Scandinavia. The festival’s main goal is to promote the diversity of the Brazilian culture through the lenses of the rich contemporary cinematographic industry in Brazil.

BrasilCine takes place every year at Zita. The festival aims to portray an image of the Brazilian society that differs from the common stereotypes by offering an array of movies addressing many different themes which are also produced in different regions of the country. BrasilCine - The festival
