Named one of the Top 5 International Films of 2024 by the National Board of Review and one of 50 Best Films of the year by British film magazine Sight & Sound, “I’m Still Here,” from Brazilian filmmaker Walter Salles (“Central Station”), is the devastating and remarkable story of a hero. Eunice Paiva (Fernanda Torres) is a mother of five in 1970 Rio de Janeiro, raising her children during a frightening period of military dictatorship in Brazil. One day, a group of men arrive at the door without warning, announcing they are taking Eunice’s husband, Rubens (Selton Mello), for questioning. That moment, and its repercussions, transforms the family, particularly Eunice, who must overnight become a tower of strength and a shield for her children — and, eventually, others — against a threatening world.
