The prize

In each edition, the feature films commercially released in Brazilian cinema during the previous year are assessed by the Award Committee, formed by corresponding international partners of LICA. They watch all productions and show four films in each of the nine competitive categories: film (fiction), Director, Actress, Actor, Documentary, Photography, Writing, Soundtrack and Blockbuster Brazil. This last category was created in the 2012 edition to reward films that achieved top grossing a million tickets.
