“A tropical melodrama”

Drama

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 1950. In the conservative home of the Gusmão family, Eurídice and Guida are two inseparable sisters who support each other. While Guida can share with her younger sister the details of her romantic adventures, Eurídice finds in her older sister the encouragement she needs to pursue her dream of becoming a professional pianist.

VIBE

A tender, devastating portrait of two sisters separated by circumstance and societal expectations. It feels like a wistful sigh, a melancholic ache for lives unlived and dreams deferred. A beautiful, heartbreaking journey through time and longing.
