Santarém, Brazil · Est. 2023 · Multiple structural red flags — exercise caution before submitting
I could not verify a film festival called "OFF Pocket" in Santarém, Brazil from the provided results. The closest match is the Festival Internacional de Cinema de Santarém, which screens fiction, documentary, animation, and experimental films and is notable as a long-running international showcase in the city of Santarém, Portugal, not Brazil.[4] If you meant a different Santarém event or a pocket-film festival in Brazil, I would need a more specific name to describe it accurately.
