I’m Still Here
One afternoon in 1971, Rubens Paiva, a former congressman and outspoken critic of Brazil’s newly imposed military dictatorship, was taken from his home in Rio de Janeiro by government officials, told nothing more than that he must give a “deposition” to authorities, and disappeared. Adapted from his son’s memoir, the film presents the indefatigable search of Rubens’s wife, Eunice (Fernanda Torres), for the truth about him.
