A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Alias:
Bruno Alvarenga Ferreira
Bruno Ferreira
Birthplace:
Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais, Brazil
Born:
December 21, 1998
Brazilian filmmaker graduated from the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (UFJF) in cinema and arts & design. Experimenting with language studies in short film format, Bruno Ferreira produced EPIDEMIA NACIONAL (2020) in a pandemic context and in the same year CADA MINUTO (2020); Next year he produced two more politic short films entitled DOMINGO NO ASFALTO (2021) and POPULAÇÃO SOLITÁRIA (2021) and an abstract short film Não ME ABALO (2021) In 2022 on his trip to Europe, he shot the short film in the city of Braga in Portugal QUANDO TUDO ACABAR (2022) entirely with non-actors. The next work in the same year was a study with long inverse shots entitled O NÃO VISTO (2022). At the end of the year, on the verge of the Brazilian presidential election, he promoted a personal family analysis in abstraction with SEGUNDA NA URNA (2022); The following year, with his first work, he ends the "Abstract Brazilian Political Trilogy" with DANO LUNÁTICO (2023). Then, in partnership with regional musicians, he performs O CONCERTO DE ONTEM (2023) in homage to Paul McCartney and with an emotional mother-son vein. He returns to a familiar format seeking to study alternation in editing with "Blue Portrait". A postponed project, TEMPORADAS AO SOL, due to the availability of his old friend who played the main character, is realized, achieving international exposure at short film festivals. Bruno Ferreira makes an abstract documentary, in three parts, about the gradual process of an Ayahuasca ritual carried out by the Shawãdawa indigenous "Arara Encantada" family, named "TRILOGIA DA FORÇA", the strength trilogy.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
