Olga

I've just caught the film, and I must say, it is a powerful, powerful depiction - epic, really, of the life of Olga Benario. Camila Morgado is a force to be reckoned with. She left no stone unturned in bringing Olga (back) to life in this film. Her presence in the film is awe-inspiring. Such an amazing actress. Look for the subtle, uncomfortable humor that she depicts in her first night aboard ship with Prestes. It is great acting. And the strength of her gaze in a number of scenes will lock you in your seat. Just an amazing turn by this young actress. I was fortunate enough to see the film with her in attendance, and her comments afterward highlighted an articulate, well-read and focused young woman who is clearly quite serious about her craft and her country. What a breath of fresh air THAT is today!!

The story itself is solid, the cinematography outstanding.

This film will stay with you.
