I’m Still Here 05/17/25

Brazil’s Academy Award winner is the most emotionally affecting picture of 2024, the true story of a Rio de Janeiro household during the 20-year military dictatorship (1964 – 1985). Rubens Paiva thinks moving his family to the safety of London is unnecessary, until agents of the police state are at his door. Fernanda Torres’s performance is gold — her Eunice Paiva shows great personal strength against the regime’s interrogators. Our only domestic disc release appears to be a DVD.
