Why watch this film?
Just like in Brazil, corruption in politics is an institutional issue in Russia. In this story, we dive a little into it, showing how bad it can be for a people - and forcing us to make parallels with our own country. It's not, however, an easy movie - but precisely for being well made and well resolved, it received an Oscar nomination for Best Foreign Language Film.

From the same director
Loveless
Nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film - and winner of the Jury Prize at Cannes Film Festival. Those are already three great reasons to watch 'Loveless' by director Andrey Zvyagintsev (of 'Leviathan') - but that's not all: the film, through a boy who lives with his family in crisis, brings a comment on the current Russian society, working almost as a metaphor for the country. All this filled with good performances, competent direction and themes that certainly touch the viewer.
Drama
Astral City 2: The Messengers
A group of messenger spirits led by Aniceto, including doctor André Luiz, are tasked with going to Earth to help rescue three proteges whose interconnected stories are about to fail.
Astral City: A Spiritual Journey
Life after death is the main theme in this drama about the process of transformation of a man during his surprising and enlightening experiences in the spiritual dimension. With magnificent art direction and special effects that have never been seen before in a Brazilian production, the film brings to the screen the most important work by Brazilian medium Chico Xavier who, through the account of the spirit of doctor André Luiz, describes in great detail what life is like at “ASTRAL CITY: A SPIRITUAL JOURNEY”.
20,000 Species of Bees
Lucía is an eight-year-old girl, who sometimes struggles as the world tries to catch up with the fact that she is trans. As the summer holidays pass, she explores her femininity alongside the women of her family who at the same time reflect on their own femininity.
Challengers
Tennis player turned coach Tashi has taken her husband, Art, and transformed him into a world-famous Grand Slam champion. To jolt him out of his recent losing streak, she signs him up for a “Challenger” event — close to the lowest level of pro tournament — where he finds himself standing across the net from his former best friend and Tashi’s former boyfriend.
