The story:
Stéphane (Damien Bonnard, Staying Vertical), has recently joined the Anti-Crime squad in Montfermeil, a sensitive district of the Paris projects. Paired up with Chris (Alexis Manenti) and Gwada (Djebril Zonga),
whose methods are sometimes unorthodox, he rapidly discovers the tensions between the various
neighborhood groups. When the trio finds themselves overrun during the course of an arrest, a drone
begins filming every move they make.
Brazil’s “Invisible Life” was also a submission for International Feature Film at the 92nd Academy Awards as well!
The story:
Rio de Janeiro, 1950. Eurídice, 18, and Guida, 20, are two inseparable sisters living at home with their conservative parents. Although immersed in a traditional life, each one nourishes a dream: Eurídice of becoming a renowned pianist, Guida of finding true love. In a dramatic turn, they are separated by their father and forced to live apart. They take control of their separate destinies, while never giving up hope of finding each other. A tropical melodrama from the director of Madame Satã.
