Rosa Luz

Arroz, Feijão e Cinema is a record of the transformative impacts that a popular movie theater, Ponto Cine, brought to the lives of the population of Guadalupe and adjacent neighborhoods in the Rio suburbs through a program exclusively of Brazilian films and projects from audience formation.

This documentary illustrates how the participation of women in open urban spaces is marked by insecurity and harassment, explores the public space as a place of violence and analyzes how campaigns promoted by activists and feminists have changed power relationships between men and women in Brazil.

Rosa, expelled from home, needs to build her own shack. Meanwhile, an expansion project in the largest port in Latin America is advancing, not only on Rosa, but on all the residents of Prainha Favela.
