Walter Salles’ family drama comes to Aotearoa hot on the heels of success at the Golden Globes (Best Actress – Fernanda Torres).
This award-winning Brazilian film, based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva’s best-selling memoir, about the search for justice against imposing odds has been a major hit on home soil and NZIFF is proud to present its NZ premiere screenings.
"Rio de Janeiro, 1970. The Paiva family lives in a rented house near the beach which is always full of friends. They are comfortable rather than rich, but they enjoy a different kind of wealth: an intellectual freedom and curiosity that feels increasingly precious as the Brazilian military dictatorship flexes its muscle on the streets outside. One day, men with guns come to take the father, Rubens (Selton Mello), in for questioning. In his absence, his wife Eunice (Fernanda Torres) must find a way to protect her five children and reinvent herself. Walter Salles’ superb factually-based film is an engrossing, affecting tribute to a formidable woman and her family.” — Wendy Ide, Screen Daily
