Investor Visa

The VITEM IX is a temporary visa for foreign individuals investing in Brazil, covering business investments (starting from BRL 150,000–500,000) or real estate purchases (min. BRL 700k–1M), allowing long-term residency. It requires prior approval from the Brazilian Ministry of Justice/Labour and includes family members.

Renewal Times and Validity

Initially valid for 2 years, renewable at the end of the term, with Permanent Residence Transition after 3 years. Investors can apply for a Permanent Residence Permit, renewable every 9 years, or not at all after age 60. 

Expectations and Requirements for Renewal

To successfully renew the investor visa, authorities will check: 

  • Maintenance of Investment: The funds are expected to be spent, but must not be repatriated (taken out of the country), risking the visa to be annulled.

  • Active Business Compliance: Proof that the company is active, compliant with taxes, and that the business plan is being followed, including the generation of employment or income.

  • Physical Presence Requirement: Investor visa holders must visit Brazil at least once every 2 years.

  • Clean Criminal Record: A renewed clean background check must be presented.

  • Your company is the investment vehicle.

  • Clear statement: “Your investment fulfills all legal requirements for the visa.”

The opportunity?

To invest in a company covering your most relevant expense while becoming an integral part of a project with real potential for change, bound with internationally renowned artists, and a high ROI potential.

  • THE LOUDEST STRINGS...

    …is a docuseries about guitars, their players, and their value as history-defining tools of Resistance. For millennia, guitars and their ancestors have lived in the hands of artists, workers, bards, nomads, and enslaved people—to resist oppression and ignite hope. For centuries, they were relegated to the outskirts of history, but since the early 20th century, they have moved in and out of fashion, yet never out of words.

  • Low and Safe Investment

    Rio de Janeiro is more affordable than New York City, but long-term rental contracts can still be costly. Being able to count that amount as a substantial portion of your required investment is therefore a clear advantage. In addition, your investment would be directly and demonstrably responsible for developing content that promotes equality, respect, and an active search for solutions to the urgent issues facing today’s turbulent world—while also offering strong potential for a highly relevant ROI.

  • The Problem

    The show recently turned down an investment offer because the individual’s political views were incompatible with our values. We have confirmed guests such as Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Omar Rodríguez-López (The Mars Volta), and Nels Cline (Wilco). With verbal commitments from Tom Morello, Jack White, Dave Matthews, and Willow Smith, producing a pilot remains essential for the next stage of development. Your investment—aside from the portion covering your own living expenses and the company’s operating costs—would be allocated exclusively to flights, accommodations, immediate costs of Tom Morello and Vernon Reid.

The Solution

The Loudest Strings offers a clear and actionable path forward: a high-impact pilot that leverages our unprecedented access to artists whose cultural and political influence extends far beyond music. With confirmed guests such as Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Omar Rodríguez-López (The Mars Volta), and Nels Cline (Wilco)—and with verbal commitments from Tom Morello, Jack White, Dave Matthews, and Willow Smith—the pilot becomes a powerful proof of concept that validates the show’s artistic, social, and commercial potential.

Your investment enables this pilot to be produced rapidly and at a uniquely low cost, thanks to the partnership with Peoplemedia, which covers production and post-production labor. This makes the project not only financially secure but strategically efficient: the budget is concentrated on the elements that matter most for international sales—talent, logistics, and execution.

By funding the pilot, we create a market-ready asset capable of being pitched to platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and global broadcasters. The result is a compelling, socially relevant series with strong international appeal, positioned to generate profit while advancing a message of equality, respect, and political awareness.


Some contextualization

Public interest in documentaries has grown significantly over the past decade, and there is no sign of deceleration.

According to Vitrina!, 'Cultural Heritage, 'Personal and Social Struggles,' and 'Music and Cultural Movements' are the three most relevant trends for documentaries in 2024. The Loudest Strings fit at the intersection of those categories. Additionally, it boasts the appeal of featuring multiple celebrity artists and stands out compared to most content released in each category individually

The reasons why most other shows should not be considered competition are as follows:

1. Documentaries According to Mental Floss's 'Best Documentaries You Can Stream Right Now,' and Vogue's 'Best Documentaries of 2024' lists, documentaries on USA for Africa, Ennio Morricone, Brian Eno, and the Harlem Cultural Festival are among the top recommendations.

2. Artists’ Profiles and Live Concerts Content with a restricted perspective and limited collaboration often struggles to engage viewers compared to a multi-guest format. Once the featured celebrity's profile or live show is covered, there is minimal incentive for repeat viewership. These productions mostly attract established fans, while opportunities to explore diversified content is often limited

3. Guitar Focused Documentaries Numerous non-fiction content pieces regarding guitars have been released; however, the vast majority target musicians and depend on their intrinsic interest for commercial success. These productions frequently lack celebrity recognition, production value, and storytelling consistency.
