Maricá International Literary Festival

Overview

The 11th International Literary Festival of Maricá (FLIM) commenced on October 30 at the Orla do Parque Nanci. Organized by the Maricá City Hall, the event features a free program of literature, music, digital culture, and education, while honoring philosopher and writer Marilena Chauí.

As the festival progressed into early November, the musical program, part of the “Língua ao Mar” project, facilitated cultural exchange between Brazil and Portuguese-speaking African nations. Performances included artists such as Boca Livre and composer Edu Lobo, with additional scheduled acts including Agnes Nunes, João Camarero, Chico Chico, Baco Exu do Blues, and BK. The event also encompasses author meetings, children's activities, and a book fair.

By November 1, the festival included discussions regarding Brazilian culture, education, and the intersection of Black and Indigenous cultures. Notable participants in these sessions included Luiz Antonio Simas, Mirian Goldenberg, Ana Beatriz Barbosa Silva, and Gregorio Duvivier.

On November 7, Maricá City Hall cancelled all scheduled activities for the day due to heavy rainfall and strong winds. This cancellation affected the book fair tents, musical performances, debates, and scheduled discussion tables. Local authorities stated the measure was a preventive action to ensure the safety of the public, exhibitors, artists, and event professionals. No new dates for the cancelled activities have been announced.
