Rodrigo Teixeira to receive GLAFF’s inaugural Visionary Award

Producer Rodrigo Teixeira will receive GLAFF’s first Árbol de la Vida Visionary Award on Nov.

6 in Los Angeles.

Actor Wagner Moura will present the award before a screening of “Paper Tiger,” which Teixeira produced.

The honor recognizes people who have made a lasting impact on cinema and strengthened ties between Latin America and the international film industry.

Teixeira has spent more than two decades connecting Latin American and global filmmaking through his production company, RT Features.

He will also mentor GLAFF’s new Mexico-US Co-Production Lab, which aims to foster joint projects between filmmakers in the two countries.

GLAFF runs Nov.

5-7, and its program includes an opening film, “Ashes,” and a closing film, “Mexicanamerican.”
