FFB ASBL

FFB organizes each year, in November, the Festival of the Brazilian Movie in Luxembourg. It offers an alternative to the stereotypes that are often associated with the image of Brazil. The festival presents the recent and award winning movies, mostly in various cinemas in Luxembourg. It also organizes discussions with directors and / or actors of the films shown at the festival. Their FB page “Festival of the Brazilian Luxembourg” is the fastest way to stay informed about the festival program and other cultural events sponsored or partnered by the festival. The festival is always looking for volunteers. Feel free to contact them to offer help.

Made in Brazil

Made in Brazil is an association which has three ambitions: to promote the Brazilian culture, to help the diaspora and to support the development process in Brazil.
They sponsor the actions of the Luxembourg Boy Scouts when they act in our country. Niki, the president of the association, cooks a delicious “feijoada” that he serves on his stand during the multicultural events organized by the municipalities or cultural circles, and he is present in almost all street festivals.
Those are opportunities for him and his wife, Ana Claudia – who prepares delicious cakes – to promote our culture through typical Brazilian dishes and drinks. Made in Brazil is the co-founder and eternal sponsor of the Brazilian Movie Festival.
To contact the association: madeinbrazil.asbl@hotmail.com
