Editorial
Affonso Uchôa’s (Araby) debut film is a calling card for one of cinema’s finest talents, capturing the hardships of life with a gentle gaze. Casting non-actors from his Brazilian hometown, Uchôa’s strong, social-realist narrative finds beauty in the everyday while remaining politically fierce.
