Kung Fu Film Festivals - Brazil

Here is a list of some of the different film festivals focusing on kung fu movies that we've had here in Brazil. I've missed all of them, mostly because of either college, work, or I found out too late to make the necessary plans. I hope to be able to attend at least one, especially from start to end. We'll see if I ever get to do that.
