BRAZIL, 1971 - Brazil faces the tightening grip of a military dictatorship.
Eunice Paiva, a mother of five children is forced to reinvent herself after her family suffers a violent and arbitrary act by the government.
The film is based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva's biographical book and tells the true story that helped reconstruct an important part of Brazil’s hidden history.
"...It’s impossible not to be moved to tears by "I’m Still Here," an emotional powerhouse which finds its bruised heart in the understated, overwhelming performance by Torres, which represents acting at its finest, the kind of portrayal that awards were created to reward..."
- Peter Travers ABC News
