About Panda Filmes
Panda Filmes is a video production company dedicated to socially impactful cinema, transforming realities through deep, engaged visual narratives. Its main focus is producing films and series that address urgent social issues, giving voice to communities and stories that are often marginalized, such as indigenous peoples, incarcerated populations, and trans people. The company acts as a bridge between artistic creation and social transformation, using audiovisual media as a tool for awareness, education, and change.
The production company offers a full-cycle service, from concept development to screening, covering production, publicity, distribution, and special projects. Its process is marked by a humanized approach, capturing not just themes but, essentially, people, with a focus on authenticity and truth in its narratives. This is reflected in productions that blend observational and participatory documentary styles, creating a powerful hybrid that connects audiences to the realities being portrayed.
Panda Filmes' portfolio includes recognized and in-progress works such as the series 'Violadas e Segregadas', which follows the lives of trans women inside and outside the prison system, the film 'A Banda', a comedy about dreams and cultural identity, and the series 'Huni Kuï - Povo Verdadeiro', which celebrates and documents the culture and way of life of the Huni Kuï indigenous people in Acre. These productions demonstrate the company's commitment to diverse, high-impact storytelling.
With an active presence at national and international film festivals, such as Festival do Rio, Mostra de Cinema de Tiradentes, Festival de Gramado, Locarno Festival, and Festival de Cinema Brasileiro de Paris, Panda Filmes has built a strong reputation in the film world. The production company also maintains ongoing dialogue with its audience through social media content, including cuts and reels on Instagram, extending the reach of its messages and engaging a community interested in cinema with purpose.
