The South Atlantic Film Festival was created to celebrate the multiple relationships between the ocean, its territories, and its cultures.
Submitted films are evaluated by the curatorial team based on the following criteria:
- Alignment with the thematic focus on the South Atlantic Ocean
- The film’s relationship with territory, landscape, and coastal ways of life
- Cinematic quality, considering language, narrative, and aesthetic approach
Held in Balneário Piçarras (SC), on the southern coast of Brazil, the Festival aims to bring together films that engage with the sea, coastal ways of life, and the diversity of the peoples who inhabit the South Atlantic.
In its inaugural edition, the event offers free screenings, discussion circles, and initiatives focused on accessibility and audience development.
