''Recife'' and consequently [[Pernambuco]] has a tradition in the Brazilian film making history. In the pioneer times of the Brazilian cinema emerged the ''Regional movements''. One of those, was designated Ciclo de Recife<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.fundaj.gov.br/notitia/servlet/newstorm.ns.presentation.NavigationServlet?publicationCode=16&pageCode=377&textCode=6763&date=currentDate |title=Fundação Joaquim Nabuco |access-date=September 3, 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110610213702/http://www.fundaj.gov.br/notitia/servlet/newstorm.ns.presentation.NavigationServlet?publicationCode=16&pageCode=377&textCode=6763&date=currentDate |archive-date=June 10, 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref> ('''Recife cycle'''), between 1922 and 1931. Despite adverse conditions, during this cycle 13 feature films were produced in Recife (usually about drama & romance) and 7 documentary films (usually ordered by authorities to show their public works). Despite the pervasive influence of [[Cinema of the United States|US]] and [[European cinema]]s in the [[silent film]] times, the Recife cycle was one of the most important and productive regional movements. One of the most important films was [[Aitaré da Praia]], which is recognised for pioneering the rise of regional themes (1925). Other successful films were ''Retribuição'' (1923) and ''A Filha do Advogado'' (1926). Another important phase of the Pernambuco/Recife film history was in the 1970s with a movement called [[Super 8mm film|Super 8]], often used for home videos and documentaries made by students, amateurs and aspirant film makers, due to the utilisation of 8&nbsp;mm film, using the new technology released by [[Eastman Kodak|Kodak]].<ref>[http://www.enotes.com/topic/Recife_Cinema_Festival Study Guides, Reference Materials for Science, Literature, History & more – eNotes.com<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
