Minha Vida em Marte highest grossing local film in ninth place overall.
Brazilian cinema in 2019 held firm at 11% market share of overall box office as it did the previous year, while overall box office grew 13.7% to a record Brl 2.79bn ($684m).
Attendance grew year-on-year by 7.8% to 177.2m, according to online data specialist Filme B. While the overall box office boost can be explained in part by a 5.54% increase in the average ticket price, the figures do not necessarily mean that the Brazilian market grew in the last 12 months.

‘My Mom Is A Character 2’
Brazilian films sold fewer tickets last year, although the total box office revenue in the country, Brl$2.7b ($844m), represented an increase of 4.7% over 2016.
For lack of a big entry, such as The Ten Commandments - The Movie, which broke the record for admissions (selling 30.1 million in 2016), Brazilian films sold 18.5 million tickets last year, indicating a fall of 38.5%.
As a result, the box office of local films dropped 28.7%, grossing Brl$252,9m ($79m), despite the number of Brazilian titles released being practically the same of the previous year: 154 features films.
“The recession that Brazil has been suffering finally reached the cinema. It stopped the lower social classes from going to the movies, mainly to see Brazilian films and mid-budget movies,” says Paulo Sergio Almeida, director of Filme B, the local theatrical tracking firm which compiled the latest figures.
