A family trapped in the shadow of oppression
Walter Salles's I'm Still Here is a compelling portrait of a family trapped in the shadow of Brazil's military dictatorship. When Rubens Paiva is captured by the secret police, his wife Eunice must navigate fear, uncertainty, and the burden of caring for their five children. Fernanda Torres portrays Eunice with quiet strength, displaying both vulnerability and unwavering determination to uncover the truth in a world where justice is lacking. Salles's meticulous direction captures the increasingly precarious moments in the Paiva family's lives with authenticity and emotional depth. The film is a moving meditation on courage, loss, and the personal toll of political oppression.
