It’s oh so quiet. It’s oh-so still.
SILENCE by Francisco Froes.
Not every shhhhhhh makes someone quiet down.
BRO Cinema is always supportive of Portuguese talent, from the inception of any concept, idea or script, to its filming and screening.
So it came as no surprise when the first Short Film by Francisco Froes, SILENCE, needed a bit of a lift up after almost 15 years in the creative process to reach its Première.
We are always proud when someone takes something from point A to point B, and when that journey took Francisco and actors Rafael Morais and Sara Sampaio to do something that could translate into the story that Francisco had in mind, we were there from the start.
As such, and because silence might be key, but we work with sound, we’re happy to say that this journey has reached another stepping stone, turned a corner or two, and is now doing the Festivals run (which started at Tribeca Lisboa).
In a way, this is Francisco’s voice, shouting out loud, that storytelling still matters, and that although 15 years have passed from that first spark and idea, creativiy has matured into a beautiful SILENCE (although Francisco can sing). Mark Ronson, watch out.

The FBI International from CBS+Paramount. How BRO Cinema made the shooting of one of the most viewed series in the world possible in Portugal as Portugal (and how Inês Herédia kicks ass).
Over the last decade, BRO has made a few conscious choices to shoot for the stars and to take risks. We have traveled far and made the impossible, well, possible. Through technical know-how and pure gut instinct, we have mixed-tested experience, great expertise, and talent. Oh yes, a lot of talent. Put together, working together. Always. One of the most challenging episodes of the new series from CBS+Paramount, FBI International from Emmy Award Winner creator Dick Wolf, was shot in Portugal and took us to new heights as its exclusive partner. This was only possible with the incredible hindsight and expertise of our partners at PSP Production, with whom we have collaborated and joined at the hip in many incredible shoots. This is what we take pride in: making it happen. When most falter or doubt, we go for it. It's as simple as that.
Every story has a long journey between the first spark or idea, the follow-up as it gets put on paper or digital screen, and then as it travels to faraway places.
The Tuner of Silences by Mário Patrocínio has had an incredible journey, and it has reached a truly singular public awareness from film audiences around the world.
We are deeply proud that it is now available through OPTO SIC, as it reaches new publics, and as that first spark/idea takes flight, over and over again.

PARA SEMPRE - MELINHA PARA BETCLIC
"Para Sempre Melinha" is a short documentary celebrating the life of one of SC Braga's most cherished fans, whose passion for football left an indelible mark on Portugal's sporting landscape. Though Melinha may have departed two years ago, her legacy continues to inspire, and we feel privileged to have captured a glimpse of her remarkable journey.
What a pleasure it is to collaborate with clients who are committed to sharing the most compelling stories from the world of sports. A heartfelt thank you to Betclic Portugal for entrusting us with the task of bringing this incredible narrative to light.
Behind the scenes, BRO poured their hearts into this project. Special thanks to our team, particularly Chico Gomes for his direction and Yuri Sardenberg for his masterful cinematography.
It's projects like these that fuel our passion, reminding us of the power of storytelling to honor and immortalize those who have touched our lives deeply.
BRO Content Powerhouse exists for stories and passions like this.
PORSCHE: The Hunter & the Prey DC by Mário Patrocínio
What a great way to start the year. M&C Saatchi Berlin has invited us to join the challenge to create a strong piece for Porsche, which supports Sebastian Steudtner, the current World Record bearer for the giant wave ever surfed, on his mission of elevating the sport to the next level. It's an homage to Sebastian, to surf, to Porsche, and, of course, to Nazaré.
"The Hunter & the Prey" is Directed by Mário Patrocinio, cinematography by Pedro Patrocinio, and still photography by Kenneth Kemp.
To work on such a stunning project proves that when passionate teams come together, magic happens, and outstanding films come alive. I hope you enjoy it as much as we loved doing it. Just like Sebastian, we're ready!
Let's surf a fantastic 2024 together!
