SCREENING 2nd DECEMBER

In a cramped house in a Rio de Janeiro favela, Malu (Yara de Novaes), a once-promising actress now unemployed and emotionally volatile, shares a tense, codependent existence with her conservative mother and her estranged adult daughter. Haunted by the memory of her theatrical past and yearning to convert her home into an arts centre, Malu teeters between self-destruction and reconciliation. When her daughter returns to care for her during a grave neurological illness, the three women are forced to confront generational trauma, love, and betrayal. The film becomes a raw, compassionate portrait of a woman struggling to become the version of herself she always imagined.

This screening will be introduced by Ingrid Machado, filmmaker, curator, and founder of Solax Film Club.

The screening is free to attend but ticketed.
