The Rio Film Festival originated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil—one of the world's major hubs for cinema and film festivals.

Founded in 2026 by filmmaker Enzo De Luca, the festival is dedicated to honoring outstanding films, whether independent or studio-produced, and regardless of whether they were released on VOD platforms or in theaters.
