Brazilian Movie A Despedida at Newport Beach Film Festival

Brazilian Movie A Despedida at Newport Beach Film Festival

posted on April 20, 2015

Last year I went to the Newport Beach Film Festival to see the Brazilian movie A Coleção Invísivel, which was great. This year the Festival’s Brazilian Spotlight will feature the film A Despedida, by director Marcelo Galvão and starring Juliana Paes and Nelson Xavier. The screening will be followed by a gala celebration of Brazilian film, food, and culture, including live music a and a capoeira performance. Sounds fun, right?

From April 23rd – 30th, 2015, the 16th annual Newport Beach Film Festival will showcase over 350 films from across the globe and host a wide array of multicultural activities. Celebrated as Orange County’s premiere film event, the Newport Beach Film Festival attracts over 55,000 attendees from around the world.

Here is the trailer of A Despedida:
