Horse Parade 14TH EDITION CATALOGUE 14TH EDITION PROJECTS MENTORS JURY LAB FILMS TEAM PARTNERS Horse Parade Filmmakers: Luciana Vieira, Gabriela Matarazzo Producer: Claudia Chakmati Production Company: Rhiza, Deberton Filmes Country: Brazil Language: Portuguese Genre: Coming of Age, Sports Drama Lab Edition: 14 , 2026 SCENE PITCH SHORT SYNOPSIS Filipa (17) is a promising jockey on Brazil's clandestine horse-racing circuit — everything she knows about horses, she learned from her father, Joel. But her talent isn't enough to outrun his gambling addiction. When Joel sells her horse to cover a debt, Filipa must decide whether to keep racing at all and place one last bet to win back her own independence. DIRECTOR'S NOTE My fascination with horses led me to spend years researching amateur horse racing, and my desire to portray women entering spaces where they are rarely seen shaped ״Horse Parade״. Through Filipa's journey, I want to portray not only her ambition to become a successful jockey, but the emotional cost of confronting invisible rules. Blending sports drama with a coming-of-age story, I seek to create a vibrant, colorful, and emotionally charged debut feature. Guided by the actors' physicality and a mise-en-scène that privileges gesture over dialogue, the film reveals the complexity of contemporary northeastern Brazil through an intimate perspective, exploring themes such as gender inequality and gambling addiction. ABOUT THE FILMMAKERS ○ Luciana Vieira is a Brazilian screenwriter and director. She co-directed the short film “Blind Spot”, which screened at Directors' Fortnight, the Havana Film Festival, Vienna Shorts, and won Best Short Film Award at Festival do Rio. She is co-creator of the series “Se Avexe Não” (Netflix) and served as 2nd unit director on Karim Aïnouz’s “Motel Destino” (Cannes 2024), and on Allan Deberton’s “Feito Pipa” (Berlinale 2026). She is currently developing “Horse Parade”, her debut feature film. ○ Gabriela Matarazzo is a Brazilian writer-producer based in Madrid. She heads Content Development at Pródigo, a leading Brazilian production company, overseeing films, docs, and series for theatrical and streaming release.
