Results

Our most successful film season to date, with over 3,000 tickets sold. Our partnership with Aleph, Brazil's largest sci-fi publisher, amplified media coverage and social media engagement, leading to over 80% of screenings selling out. Our final screening, on the day of the moon landing anniversary, made the cover of Ilustríssima, the cultural supplement of São Paulo's biggest newspaper.
