Steve Solot, President of the Latin American Training Center – LATC, in partnership with the Federation of Favelas of the State of Rio de Janeiro – FAFERJ, has begun preparations for the “Fazendo Meu Primeiro Filme” (“Making My First Film”) project, which will take place in favelas located in downtown Rio de Janeiro. The course is scheduled to start in March 2026.
