BIMIFF #4 - ENG

A NEW SEASON,
A NEW HOPE
E D I T O R I A L

"In the midst of the turbulent Brazilian elections, where
the presidential race became a duel between the recovery
of a weakened democracy after 4 years of an authoritarian,
reactionary, and extremist government, and the total turn
towards barbarism with the continuation of an anti-Brazil
political project, our festival debuted its 3rd season, and
our magazine, its 4th edition.

With so many political disputes and a scenario of
uncertainties for the future of our country, especially in
the economy, education, culture, and environment;
democracy won. The popular sovereignty opted for the
recovery of the national hegemony, for the reopening of
the country to international diplomacy, and for a future
that aims at restoring our prestige, lost after a disastrous
mandate that had as a balance scabrous cases of active
corruption, more than half a million deaths resulting from
bad management during the biggest peaks of the
pandemic, and unprecedented political isolation in the
international panorama.
BIMIFF opens another season, and launches its 4th issue
with several exclusive contents, including interviews with
filmmakers from Brazil and around the world, reviews of
award-winning projects, as well as a new unique article by
our contributor Pamela Nassour, on the topic of film
distribution, and a first-hand article on the film COISA
PÚBLICA, the latest project by filmmaker André Borelli,
starring actress Priscila Ubba, about this very current and
present topic for our fellow citizens: the recovery of our
democracy's strength through art, culture and political
awareness.
Dear readers, welcome to our third season, and may new
winds arise where hope is no longer just a dreamy noun,
but an active verb in our comeback.
