<p>Head to Metropolis-Empire Sofil every night from 31 Aug to 3 Sept to see a selection of award-winning contemporary Brazilian films at Beirut's first ever Brazilian Film Festival, jointly organised by the Brazilian Embassy, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/Brasiliban/">Brazil-Lebanon Cultural Centre</a> and <a href="http://www.facebook.com/MetropolisCinema">Metropolis Association</a>. All films are subtitled in English, and things kick off with cocktails (we presume Caipirinhas) at 19:00 on the opening night.</p>
