Carlota Joaquina

Four city workers in their daily important relationships. A worker in the field of the Landless Rural Workers Movement. Poetry plucked like weed from the soil of our time.

Tom has just become a father and, along with his wife Elisa, he will learn firsthand how to take care of his daughter. Amid fun and exciting everyday situations, Tom discovers the real meaning of fatherhood. Loosely inspired by the bestseller Dad is Cool, by Marcos Piangers.

After using a strange AI device in a decadent course for unemployed people, a 40-year-old amnesic man gets obsessed with recurring absurd dreams, believing they are his life memories. Fourth feature film by the Brazilian director Davi Pretto.

Joao a de longues conversations avec des amis, des étrangers et lui-même. Par exemple avec sa meilleure amie Irène, qui ne peut laisser partir les souvenirs de son ex ; et le garçon qu’il rencontre dans le métro, avec qui il veut faire l'amour. Outre la vie et l'amour, le processus de création est un thème récurrent dans les conversations, dans les meilleures traditions de cinéastes comme Éric Rohmer ou Hong Sang-soo. Pièce par pièce, les rencontres, les conversations et les monologues ont une grande influence sur Joao, qui lutte littéralement avec son attitude face à la vie.

Dreams and reality get mixed up in this sci-fi plot, focused on a photographer. When he photographs a terrorist attack during a trip to Jerusalem, his personal and professional lives plunge into turmoil.

Dispossessed in an essay about the daily bread. In a country like Brasil, of such abyssal social inequality as there is here, it's urgent for me in cinema to talk about the class to which I belong, the class-who-lives-on-labor. And, alongside that, about the labor relations, the survival, the unemployment, the increasingly impoverished life, the small popular uprisings and the confrontations with the non natural order of things. In "Bread and People", we deal with ruins. And in the struggle of the old against the new, we face mainly the ruin of an idea of progress, and the debris of a critical anti capitalist art today. We've deepened our investigation of an epic, historical and dialectical cinema, using the materials of inspiration themselves.

A tale about the apocalypse of the working class.
