Six films curated by film scholar Stefan Solomon, will be exhibited in this section.
Anita Rocha de Silveira's Kill Me Please, Juliana Rojas' Necropolis Symphony, Eduardo Nunes' Southwest, Fernanda Pessoa's Stories that our Cinema did (Not) tell, Adirley Queiros' White out, Black in, and Thiago B. Mendonca's Miserable or a man screaming is not a dancing bear are the films to be screened in 'Country Focus'.
Directors with a clear perspective and a lucid personal outlook add a novel dimension to the films from Brazil. The contemporary films reflect the socio-political circumstances with precision.
