at a glance |
with globally iconic landmarks, a wealth of tropical vegetation, crisp blue skies and clean clear waters, rio de janeiro is a superb location to make any film at least look good. but, with an infectious culture, alive with rhythm and pleasure, most productions in the city will not only have incredible aesthetics, but pick up some of rio's exotic flair as well. the city of rio has all the potential to become the hollywood of latin america, and this affair between the city and the film industry is not new - the city of rio de janeiro was home to brazil's first film viewings at the end of the 19th century. since then, there have been several production cycles, and 19 of the 20 highest grossing brazilian movies have been filmed in rio. |
