A mother is forced to reinvent herself when her family’s life is shattered by arbitrary violence as Brazil’s military dictatorship tightens its grip in 1971.

Martha: Everyone is in danger, Eunice. A Festa do Santo Reis Written by Léo Maia (Marcio Leonardona) Performed by Tim Maia. "I’m Still Here" is a film about a time in Brazilian history when fear, censorship and torture reigned, a time that should never return.
Fernanda Torres’ performance is incredible, she truly deserves all the nominations she received during awards season
However, director Walter Salles subtly develops the theme, introducing us to a united and loving family that longs for the return of their missing father and husband. It is possible to identify with Eunice’s pain in so many moments and also imagine how brutal the military dictatorship must have been. The film has bittersweet moments and builds a place where you feel close to that family, a place full of tenderness and affection.
Selton Mello also develops an excellent performance as Rubens Paiva
The entire cast is brilliant, and we also have the sublime Fernanda Montenegro as the older Eunice Paiva. The film is technically beautiful, with a wonderful portrayal of 70s Rio de Janeiro. I think I speak for many Brazilians when I say that it would be so meaningful if Brazil were nominated for an Oscar with this, but nevertheless it is a must-see, a new masterpiece of Brazilian cinema.
that raises awareness, delights and may even bring you to tears
