This analysis focus on studies about creative economy and culture industries. Through literature revision and semi structured interviews among the local production companies, it was investigated certain difficulties and inequalities that seems to be endemic in Brazilian cinematic industry. Those difficulties are still faced by the local producers. However, this survey also found that the movie production in Paraíba has overcome some of its limitations and set milestones in its history.
