I'M STILL HERE | Official Trailer (2025)

 

Rio de Janeiro, early 1970s. Brazil faces the tightening grip of a military dictatorship. We are introduced to the Paivas: a father, Rubens, a mother, Eunice, and their five children, who live by the beach. The affection and humor they share among themselves are their own subtle forms of resistance to the oppression that hangs over the country. 

But one afternoon, everything changes. Rubens, an outspoken critic of the regime, is taken from his home in Rio de Janeiro by government officials, told nothing more than that he must give a "deposition" to authorities, and disappears. While tirelessly searching for the truth, Eunice (a shattering Fernanda Torres, nominated for Best Actress) must carve out a new future for herself and her children. 

Adapted from his son Marcelo Rubens Paiva's memoir and Oscar winner for Best International Feature, this richly realized political drama from Walter Salles (The Motorcycle Diaries) offers an exhilarating portrayal of human tenacity in the face of injustice.
