Fabiano’s been in the game for over three decades, shaping the face of Brazilian film and TV like few others have. He’s not just another producer; he’s one of those folks who actually put Brazilian cinema out there on the world stage, hustling to get local stories into new territories. The guy’s all about shaking things up—he basically helped kickstart co-productions with Europe and Asia way before it was trendy, and he rolled up his sleeves to help launch “Cinema do Brasil,” pushing Brazil’s audiovisual scene globally with some serious backing from the big agencies and ministries. If there’s a Brazilian film or series making waves abroad, odds are Fabiano had something to do with it. He co-founded Gullane, which is kind of a big deal—think of it as a powerhouse behind a ton of Brazilian hits. Since ‘96, Gullane has dropped over 55 features and cranked out more than 50 different series for every platform you can think of. Their list of hits? Wildly impressive: movies like *Carandiru*, *Bicho de Sete Cabeças*, *O Ano em que Meus Pais Saíram de Férias*, the *Até que a Sorte nos Separe* franchise, *Que Horas Ela Volta?*, and more. Plus, they dive deep into docs that dig into Brazil’s identity and culture, stuff like *A Última Floresta* and *Ex-Pajé*. On the TV side, Gullane’s everywhere—Netflix, HBO, Globoplay, Disney+, you name it. From *Senna* to *Sintonia*, *Alice*, *Hard*, *Unidade Básica*, and a laundry list more, their shows rack up awards—over 500 nods from everywhere that matters: Oscars, Cannes, Berlin, Emmys… the whole nine yards. If you’re talking about someone who’s moved the needle for Brazilian audiovisual, Fabiano’s your guy.
