LABRFF 2023
We love good stories, and we’ve spent 15 years seeking international stories and storytellers. LABRFF inspires a lot of independent filmmakers from around the world, especially from Brazil and South America. The festival entertains and brings unforgettable and unimaginable emotions. LABRFF tries through its programming to impact the lives of thousands of people and intentionally curates its films to bring diversity and pluralism to its audience.
This year LABRFF brings the Kids selection into the festival attempt to bring independent films to a historically under-represented audience – children. Each year, a small selection of family-friend independent films will be presented for young audiences, to help them develop an appreciation for movies that don’t screen in multiplexes, have expanded universes, or merchandise tie-ins with major toy companies. Also, the festival is happy to announce that Faith-Based and Environmental films will also be included into the festival.
FULL FESTIVAL PROGRAM
The 2023 Los Angeles Brazilian International Film Festival (LABRFF) will showcase over 40 independent films from Brazil and around the world, combining the best of features, documentaries, shorts, kids, and environmental films as well as tribute screenings, a celebrity-filled red carpet and more.
Competitions:
- Narrative Feature Competition – Brazilian feature films
