Proyectan películas en exteriores de Río durante cuarentena

In Rio de Janeiro, a portable cinema screen was set up outside apartment buildings to provide entertainment for residents confined due to COVID-19. The initiative, Cine en las Ventanas, encouraged people to stay home by showing short films from a specially equipped vehicle. Before the pandemic, Rio Filme's mobile cinema offered free outdoor screenings in parks. To prevent virus spread, these were canceled, and cinemas closed. The project aimed to support mental health, especially in Ilha do Governador, a wealthy area. Brazil has reported over 13,000 COVID-19 deaths.
