The fifth film, Alice Júnior (Brazil, 2019), tells the story of a carefree, spoiled trans YouTuber with everything she could ask for: an apartment in a cool beach town, a loving dad, her own advice vlog, an almost-win on Teen Top Model, and a cat named Rhinoceros. So, when her father announces their move from the vibrant Brazilian city of Recife to a small, conservative town in the south and to an old-fashioned catholic school, Alice has to prepare herself for the prudery and small-mindedness she will confront there.
Following the screening of the film, please join Dr. Mollie Blackburn, Professor in the Department of Teaching and Learning, and Vitor Vilaverde, for a discussion and Q&A about the movie.
