Trailer

Why watch this film?

Lúcia Murat's amalgam of ideas, feelings, and memories of her time imprisoned during the Brazilian Military Dictatorship, constantly reflecting on the loss of freedom in such a dark period of history. Here, Murat (‘Praça Paris’) plays with reality and fiction as she speaks of Ana, a young Brazilian present in Latin American artists’ letters in the 1960s, but who then disappeared into thin air. What happened? Where did she go? Speaking of this feeling of repression, and even delving into the harsh issue of people disappearing during Latin American dictatorships during this period, ‘Ana. Sem Título’ takes a risk in experimentalism and makes this important personification of someone persecuted by authoritarian regimes. Mature, intense, provocative. A film that doesn't let the viewer leave its projection unaffected, prodding the wound until the end.
