Felipe Braga is the creator of Samantha! and co-creator of Sintonia, shows produced by LB Entertainment for Netflix, and Lov3 (for Amazon, in its pre-production stages), as well as Latitudes and Neymar Jr's Life Outside the Fields - both nominated for International Emmys. Recently selected by Variety as one of Latin America's New Emerging Talents behind the screen, Felipe has written HBO Latin America series such as "Mandrake" (nominated for an International Emmy) and Destino, and feature films like Legalize Já and Cabeça a Prêmio. His first work as a director was B1, a feature documentary, followed by the feature fiction film Latitudes, part of a cross-media project in partnership with YouTube and TNT, presented at Locarno Festival. Felipe Braga, a founding partner of LB Entertainment alongside Rita Moraes, worked as a writer for production companies such as O2 (City of God) in Brazil, and others like London-based Working Title (in Trash, by Stephen Daldry). A SXSW Film panelist for four consecutive years, Felipe's latest projects include directing the HBO original feature documentary Principal Dancer, and the screenplay for Marighella, directed by Wagner Moura, with world premiere at the Berlin Film Festival.
