I'M STILL HERE
Winner of Best International Film at this year's Academy Awards and nominated for 3 Academy Awards (Best Picture, Best International Feature and Best Actress for the incredible Fernanda Torres), I'M STILL HERE returns to ActOne. With a stunning central performance from Torres, Walter Salles' (Central Station, The Motorcycle Diaries) film is a humanistic ode to resilience that spans decades of determined activism, imbuing a dark chapter of Brazil’s history with dignity and emotional resonance...
On a sun-soaked street under the shadow of a military dictatorship in the early '70s, the Paiva household is bursting at the seams with life and love. Eunice and Rubens’ five children bring a contained chaos to their stream of parties, political debates and impromptu living room dancing, until one afternoon the safety of their home is breached. Family life descends slowly into a nightmare when Rubens is abducted in plain sight, dragging Eunice into a lifelong battle for truth and justice.
Based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva's biographical book, this is Salles' first narrative feature in 12 years and it tells a powerful true story that helped reconstruct an important part of Brazil’s hidden history.DramaPT2H18M152025-02-28Fernanda Torres
