Why watch this film?
Bo Burnham is a remarkable comedian who has been gaining attention in recent years and has shown himself to be a name to be followed. He has also been standing out in the audiovisual medium where he acted in some films, most recently the Oscar-nominated 'Bela Vingança', and wrote and directed the sensitive teenage drama 'Eighth Grade'. In 'Inside', Bo takes a look at a perspective that has been widely shared during the pandemic: being inside the house, with few prospects. He directs, writes, acts, films, composes music and edits the special. Despite the apparent randomness, in fact he plans everything meticulously, creating an implicit order in chaos- in a previous special of his, 'Make Happy', Bo talks about the importance of creating naturalness in a stand-up and how in fact everything is carefully planned, and that is exactly what we can observe here. Sympathetic, funny and extremely relatable, 'Bo Burnham: Inside' is a light, pleasant and intelligent choice for everyone, especially those who spend the pandemic inside the house.

Eighth Grade
"Eighth Grade" explores the anxiety and transformations that Generation Z adolescents go through, who have never known a world without the internet, touching on topics such as sexting, selfies, and the emotional dependence involved with social media. The protagonist, played by Elsie Fisher (who was nominated for a Golden Globe for the role), is a 13-year-old girl who produces videos nobody watches on YouTube, while living the dichotomy between what she would like to be and what she really is, not valuing her qualities while trying to fit in the standards imposed by the social context. It's the fictional feature directing debut of comedian and actor Bo Burnham, who started out as a YouTuber and became famous to the general public with productions like "Eighth Grade," and the final result is extremely praiseworthy. This is a must-see for everyone, since everyone knows the pains, joys, and worries of being 13--especially those who are going through it now or have children going through it.
Comedy
A Brighter Tomorrow
Italian filmmaker Nanni Moretti (winner of the Palme d'Or in 2001 for The Son's Room) returns with what has been called his 8½, for obvious reasons. A Brighter Tomorrow is the story of a filmmaker struggling to shoot a movie about the Hungarian Revolution, while trying to save his marriage to his producer wife. The film satirizes the current state of cinema, and perhaps indulges a bit too much in its nostalgia. It is far from the best that veteran Moretti has to offer, but if you've enjoyed his previous films, you will undoubtedly enjoy this one.
City Hunter
'City Hunter' - An exceptional marksman and hopeless playboy, private eye Ryo Saeba reluctantly forms an alliance with his late partner’s sister to investigate his death.
Club Zero
Miss Novak joins the staff of an international boarding school to teach a conscious eating class and forms a strong bond with five students that eventually takes a dangerous turn.
Aumenta que é Rock’n’Roll
The film tells the story of Luiz Antônio, a clumsy radio presenter who, unexpectedly, finds himself in charge of a bankrupt and falling apart radio station. Relying only on his passion for rock’n’roll and a crazy team, he created one of the most emblematic radio stations in the history of Brazilian rock, Fluminense FM. Between guitar solos and signal interference, we follow the adventures and misadventures of Luiz who, on top of that, falls in love with a married announcer.
