I'M STILL HERE | Gala Preview

Be among the first to experience Walter Salles’ highly anticipated return to narrative filmmaking, I’m Still Here, at a special gala preview event on January 29. Enjoy a glass of prosecco on arrival before immersing yourself in this gripping historical drama, Brazil’s official selection for Best International Film at the 2025 Academy Awards.

Starring Oscar nominee Fernanda Montenegro and her daughter Fernanda Torres in powerhouse performances, I’m Still Here unfolds a profoundly moving true story of courage, sacrifice, and resilience during Brazil’s oppressive military dictatorship in the 1970s. Based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva’s acclaimed memoir, the film follows Eunice Paiva (Torres), a mother of five whose life is upended when her husband is forcibly taken by the military police. As Eunice transforms into a fearless activist fighting for her family’s survival, Montenegro brings gravitas to her role as Eunice’s mother-in-law, adding depth to this multi-generational tale of defiance and hope.

With Salles’ masterful direction, a poignant script by award-winners Murilo Hauser and Heitor Lorega, and stunning cinematography, I’m Still Here is both a harrowing historical drama and a tribute to the indomitable human spirit. Don’t miss this special opportunity to see a film that is already generating international acclaim.
