Companhia Amazônica de Filmes is made up of Amazonian producers. People who understand the Amazon not as landscape, but as a historical, political, and creative subject.
We also believe that creative industries are a vital alternative for truly sustainable development. From the beginning, our commitment has been to create sensitive narratives, with aesthetic depth, but also with political responsibility. Stories that come from sharing — from listening and exchanging.
