I’m Still Here15

Directed by Walter Salles | Brazil | 2024 | 2h 18m | Portuguese w/ English subtitles | Starring Fernanda Torres, Fernanda Montenegro, Selton Mellom, Valentina Herszage, Marjorie Estiano

In early 1970s Brazil, as a military dictatorship tightens its grip on the country, Eunice Paiva – a mother of five – is forced to rebuild her life when her husband is taken by the police and disappears without a trace. Based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva’s memoir, acclaimed director Walter Salles (The Motorcycle Diaries) makes a powerful return with this emotionally profound portrayal of a family struggling under an oppressive regime.
