A 17-year-old, her friends and an unwanted pregnancy - an emancipatory film from Bolsonaro-era Brazil.
by Lillah Halla
Brazil 2023, 99 min, Port/d, from about 16
Sofia, a bright and ambitious 17-year-old volleyball player, lives in a poor suburb in Brazil. On the eve of an important tournament that could determine her future, she learns of her unwanted pregnancy. But ending it - in a country that criminalizes abortion - is almost impossible. Together with her friend and teammates, Sofia forges a plan and is therefore targeted by religious fundamentalists.
The powerful and emancipatory debut film by Brazilian Lillah Halla tells in an inspiring way the everyday life of a young woman who fights against conservatism in the Bolsonaro era.
