É Tudo Verdade / It's All True

The It’s All True – International Documentary Festival is one of the most traditional events on Brazil’s audiovisual calendar, not to mention the most important showcase for nonfictional film in Latin America. The City of São Paulo Department of Culture and Spcine are proud to have partnered with the Festival one more time. This year, Caetano.doc, a special show celebrating Caetano Veloso, will be available on Spcine Play (www.spcineplay.com.br)—Brazil’s only public streaming platform—and will feature six films from the It’s All True program.

Importantly, this partnership also extends to Spcine Formation, in the form of a public, online masterclass by a professional from the sector. The Festival is also ceding a film from its catalog to the Spcine Cinema Club, a program run by São Paulo City Hall that has set up sixteen cinemas in some of the city’s most underprivileged areas. However, since last year, this program has also transferred online. The Spcine Cinema Club is an important space for dialogue that encourages critical thought through debates on, and screenings of, Brazilian and foreign films.

We hope this new partnership between the City of São Paulo Department of Culture, Spcine, and It’s All True can help form new outlooks, fuel fresh debate, and incite critical reflection on audiovisual production from Brazil and abroad.

Wishing everyone a wonderful Festival!
