As twilight darkens, in the community of Ozière, west of Campinas, São Paulo, Brazil, red brick cottages slowly fade into silhouette and homes are lit up.

When the reporter drove two hours from São Paulo to the center of the community of Oziers, a solar-powered movie projection truck had stopped in the middle of the square, a white screen was erected on the side, and the children were smiling and curious about new things.

This projection vehicle is from the "Homeland Cinema" project. The project is mainly sponsored by China State Grid Brazil Power CPFL. In the 5 years since the project was launched, the projection vehicle has screened thousands of films in poor communities in Brazil.

"Due to economic constraints, it is difficult for many children from low-income families in Brazil to access movies." Arario, the head of the "Homeland Cinema" project, introduced to reporters.

As the night darkens, a short film about Chinese customs begins to play on the screen. "I want my children to be exposed to more diverse cultures in the world, and China is one of the most interesting countries to learn about today." Arario said.

The highlight of the evening was a magical animated film "Elven Throne" produced by a Chinese team, and the young audience was attentive as if they were worried about missing a single frame. The animated characters in the movie are witty and humorous, and the laughter of the audience fills the entire square.

"The movie is so good, it's like a dream!" 10-year-old Deborah excitedly told reporters. Richard, who was also 0 years old, ran to the reporter and asked: "Is it difficult to learn Chinese?" ”

"Some people say that watching movies is not just for entertainment, but also for dreams." Arario hopes that through the "Home Cinema" project, more children can have different dreams. "My biggest dream now is to bring Brazilian films to China, to do a screening of Brazilian films in China, and to build a bridge of light and shadow between the two peoples."
