Brazilian Producer Maria Farinha Films Takes Minority Stake in ‘The White Helmets’ Production Company Violet Films (EXCLUSIVE)
Brazilian impact docs producer Maria Farinha Films is taking a minority stake in 'The White Helmets' production company Violet Films.
“Our vision is centered on harnessing the power of collective intelligence from development to distribution to produce content that is both globally relevant and culturally specific,” said Maria Farinha Films co-CEOs and partners Luana Lobo and Mariana Oliva in a joint statement. This new approach is not merely about forming a coalition, it’s about constructing a vibrant ecosystem where ideas, cultural insights, market opportunities and artistic visions cross-pollinate to expand the global scope and depth of our slate.” Lobo and Oliva are in Cannes to present Cuban filmmaker Marcel Beltrán’s “Moa,” about a woman whose battle to escape a toxic relationship in a mining city leads her to connect with the Taíno indigenous people who were its original inhabitants.
