This one hits hard. It’s a brilliantly told true story of just one of the thousands of families destroyed the military dictatorship in Brazil.

Its depiction of Rio de Janeiro in the 70s is very on point. The details make everything much more relatable. It’s a powerful reminder of why we must celebrate and fight to keep the rights we have today.

It took me way too long to watch this movie, but I’m so glad I was finally able to watch it.

Absolutely incredible, raw, weird and full of symbolisms that will keep me thinking about the movie for days. Another masterpiece in Brazilian cinema. Have you watched Bacurau?

You can feel all sorts of emotions on this one (hah!), but the main one is joy. Amazing movie, funny, relatable, touches on very important topics with good humor and a lot of sensibility.

Props to the Brazilian dubbing and localization which was amazing and probably made the movie even better than it originally was! 😉

Mesmerizing movie that hooked me from start to finish. Might not be for everyone, but I just love when movies don’t give you all the answers and make you think about what happened. It makes you part of the story in away.
