The Lives We Lead

The story of the relationship between Military Police commander Domingos Macedo and his children over three decades. Raised in a toxic family environment, the children struggle to survive the rigid rule of a man forged by the brutality of the Military Police. Flávia learns early on that defending herself is an act of rebellion and transforms fear into strength, until she manages, in her own way and by her own rules, to challenge her father's power on the Andaraí favela (community).

Álbum do Bebê

Between notes and photographs from a baby album, this short film investigates what lies outside the frame. Starting from the director's mother's written records and childhood images in which her presence appears only in fragments — a hand holding, an arm supporting, a shadow on the edge — the film proposes a reflection on absence and the traces left in the visual narratives of family life. By weaving together facts and fabrication, the work reveals how family albums function not only as repositories of memory, but also as coming-of-age stories, full of choices, silences, and inventions. Between delicacy and humor, the film questions who appears and who is erased in these stories, exploring the invisibility of care work and its discreet permanence in the materiality of photography.

Freedom, even though belated

Passing through the mountains of Ouro Preto, through a peaceful rural area, through the heart of the metropolis Belo Horizonte and also through its periphery, each character in “Liberdade, though belated” lives a different reality. Elisa hides a great sin, João carries the pain of a loss, Felipe lives continuous nights of torment and Rosana, the anguish of protecting her best friend from an abusive relationship. Their conflicts are distinct, but the longing for freedom is what unites them.
