Cine Brasília, one of the city's cultural landmarks, survived the military dictatorship, remaining a vital space for film screenings over the years. As the last neighborhood theater in the capital, it preserves the memory and history of cinema in Brazil, with a seating capacity of 424. Premiering There Were Sirens in Cerrado at this iconic venue was a great honor, a return to the heart of the film's story. Although the premiere took place in Brasília, I participated remotely, connected through my phone, while I was in New York.
