Academy Award® winner for Best International Feature.

Brazil, 1971. As the nation faces the tightening grip of a military dictatorship, everyday life remains. But when her family suffers a violent and arbitrary act at the hand of  government forces, Eunice Paiva (Fernanda Torres), mother of five children, is forced to reinvent herself. Based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva’s biography, Walter Salles (THE MOTORCYCLE DIARIES) returns with his powerful new film I’M STILL HERE, telling the true story that helped reconstruct an important part of Brazil’s hidden history of political repression and the long fight for justice.
