Special screening of the documentary "The Joker of Cinema" brings together audiences and celebrates Virgílio Roveda's career at the São Paulo Press Association.

 

It happen on the last 19th, a special screening of the documentary "The Joker of Cinema" took place at API – Associação Paulista de Imprensa (São Paulo Press Association), in an evening marked by memory, recognition, and celebration of the history of São Paulo cinema. The screening, held in the Sala Nobre (Noble Hall) of the Palácio da Imprensa (Press Palace) in the historic center of São Paulo, was free and brought together professionals in the field, students, admirers of the seventh art, and guests.

The event featured an enriching conversation with filmmaker Virgílio Roveda – the protagonist of the work – accompanied by the documentary team. The dialogue revealed previously untold stories, behind-the-scenes curiosities, and reflections on the inner workings of Brazilian film production, especially that of professionals who, despite being fundamental, often remain invisible to the general public.

Directed by Sérgio Kieling and inspired by the book by journalist and writer Matheus Trunk, the documentary "The Joker of Cinema" relives the trajectory of Virgílio Roveda, who has just completed 60 years of his career. With over five decades dedicated to São Paulo's audiovisual industry, Virgílio worked in various genres and roles—cameraman, director of photography, producer—becoming an essential figure in understanding the technical and creative evolution of cinema in the state.

Released in 2019, the film is a tribute to the anonymous technicians who, with talent and resilience, built the history of Brazilian cinema. Through Roveda's narrative, the documentary traces an affective and historical panorama of national production, highlighting technological changes, the challenges faced by the profession, and the unwavering love for this art.

The special screening reinforced API's commitment to valuing cultural initiatives that preserve the country's audiovisual memory, bringing the public closer to works that reveal the importance of the behind-the-scenes aspects and their protagonists.

ADD YOUR NAME

Dear USO Supporter,

As a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, I can tell you it's the holidays that were the most difficult days to be deployed.

I remember being stationed in Japan when Thanksgiving rolled around. Some of us gathered our money, and we bought a Thanksgiving meal to go.

We didn't really have a place to eat it — then we remembered the USO. They had a nice little room, and it was the only place that wasn't going to charge us to sit together and eat our Thanksgiving meal.

We brought all our food and broke bread together right there in the USO Center. And it made the day special.

There are thousands of service members who are far from home this Thanksgiving, protecting our nation while we get to celebrate with our loved ones. They need your support.

I hope you'll sign the Thanksgiving card for our service members stationed around the world right now.

Please add your name now to show your support for our brave service members

Will you help us reach our 50,000-signature goal and add your name to our Thanksgiving card today? Speaking from experience, it will mean so much to the men and women far from their families this Thanksgiving.

By signing, you're telling the brave men and women of our armed forces that their service and sacrifices will never be taken for granted.

Please show your patriotic support for our military and sign the card today.

THANK OUR HEROES NOW

On behalf of our heroes,

Barry Morris

RITICAL Voting Rights Update: Supreme Court to Hear Major Challenge to Mail-In Ballot Laws -New York Times Please, we need your signature: Sign our grassroots petition to demand the Supreme Court PROTECT vote-by-mail >> ADD MY NAME: PROTECT VOTE-BY-MAIL >> ⇒ Democrats just won important races across the country in LANDSLIDE victories. ⇒ So now, Trump and MAGA Republicans are furious – they’re gearing up to keep their grip on Congress in 2026 and CRUSH our momentum any way they can. Folks, the Supreme Court will soon hear a case in which Republicans are challenging a law about mail-in ballots. Their decision could have MAJOR implications for vote-by-mail nationwide! Trump already said he wants to END vote-by-mail. And with the extremist Supreme Court enabling his every move, they could actually do it. That would be a DISASTER!! We need to send a message LOUD and CLEAR to the Supreme Court – we will NOT let them destroy this Constitutional right! Sign our petition to demand the Supreme Court protect mail-in voting >> ADD MY NAME: PROTECT VOTE-BY-MAIL >> Mail-in voting is a safe and secure way for millions of Americans to make their voices heard. But Trump and Republicans want to SILENCE voters and take away this fundamental right! We must fight back.

Tarcísio de Freitas inaugurates the new Professor Genilson Carlos Magrini State School in Emilianópolis and reinforces his commitment to public education.

 

In a ceremony marked by emotion and optimism, Governor Tarcísio de Freitas celebrated, this Thursday, the inauguration of the Professor Genilson Carlos Magrini State School in Emilianópolis — a modern, complete school that represents a leap in quality for education in the region.

The new unit has ten classrooms, designed to offer spacious and welcoming environments for students. In addition, there is a computer lab to train students in the use of new technologies, a reading room that encourages the habit of reading and reflection, and a laboratory where it will be possible to conduct experiments and promote the practical teaching of science. The building is complemented by a large courtyard and open sports courts, spaces that will allow for social interaction, leisure, and sports practice, promoting well-being and integration among young people.

For Governor Tarcísio, this delivery is much more than just bricks: “We are investing to offer dignified, structured, and innovative education. Adequate school infrastructure is an essential part of social transformation—it is the foundation for building a fairer and more promising future for our students.”

Since the beginning of his term, the São Paulo State government claims to have already inaugurated more than 60 new state schools. This effort is accompanied by an ambitious program of works: renovations, expansions, public-private partnerships, and modernization of school units, reinforcing the administration's commitment to a more accessible, modern, and high-quality educational network.

With the Professor Genilson Carlos Magrini State School, the government reaffirms its vision that educating well means investing in human potential—and that each new school is a concrete opportunity to build, in practice, a more dignified future for the entire community of Emilianópolis and the state as a whole.
