BRAZIL, 1971 – Brazil faces the tightening grip of a military dictatorship. Eunice Paiva, a mother of five children, is forced to reinvent herself after her family suffers a violent and arbitrary act by the government. Based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva’s biographical book, the film tells the true story that helped reconstruct an important part of Brazil’s hidden history.

Walter Salles’ superb factually-based film — he was a real-life friend of the Paiva family as a teenager — is an an engrossing, affecting tribute to a formidable woman and her family. – Screen International

Masterfully layered and confidently executed, I’m Still Here swivels between intimate family drama and sweeping political thriller – PopMatters
