I'm Still Here

Living in.brazil, but only came to Brazil much later, the film gives a unique insight as to how it was to live during the dictatorship in 70s Brazil. Besides a window into how Rio looked In the 70s, lifestyle etc.

I would love that people who voted in favour of extreme right would see how the dictatorship worked, feel how it impacted people, that were minimally politically involved and persecuted.

The film is expertly showing that with subtlety like many small papercuts into the soul how easy it was for someone to dissappear, how basic rights were violated.

It is a highly topical film and very important, highlighting a wound in Brazilian society that has never really healed. And yet, some people wish for these painful times to return. I hope you watch this masterpiece and start reflecting.
