  • "I’m Still Here" portrays political resistance through the lens of family, with Fernanda Torres as Eunice Paiva, a mother enduring under Brazil's military dictatorship in the 1970s.
  • The film, directed by Walter Salles, is based on the memoir of Eunice's son, Marcelo, focusing on their life after the disappearance of patriarch Rubens Paiva.
  • Eunice's defiance is symbolized by her encouragement for her children to smile in a newspaper photograph, illustrating resilience amidst grief.
  • Released after Jair Bolsonaro's controversial presidency, the film resonates with current socio-political themes and has gained critical acclaim and recognition as Brazil's Oscar submission.
  • The story is personal for Salles, who aspired to recreate the lively atmosphere of the Paiva family home, capturing the persistent spirit of love in dark times.
