"438 dagar" é um filme sueco de drama que conta a história de dois jornalistas locais, Martin Schibbye e Johan Persson, que colocaram suas vidas em risco ao cruzar ilegalmente a fronteira da Somália para a Etiópia. Após meses de pesquisa, planejamento e tentativas fracassadas, eles finalmente estavam no caminho para relatar como a implacável busca por petróleo afetou a população da isolada e conflituosa região de Ogaden. O mais interessante é que essa é uma história real e o filme consegue abordar a intensidade da experiência que os dois jornalistas passaram, além de criar reflexões sobre a liberdade de expressão, senso de justiça e busca da verdade com um senso de humor sutil que equilibra o filme e facilmente cativa seus espectadores.

The Park Maniac, a true crime film from Amazon Prime Video, retells the case of Francisco de Assis Pereira, the notorious Brazilian serial killer who shook the country in the 90s. Silvero Pereira delivers a remarkable performance in the role of the infamous serial killer, while Giovanna Grigio plays an investigative reporter who symbolizes the many women who sought justice. Inspired by the book that accompanies the true story, the film is directed by Maurício Eça, also responsible for the trilogy The Girl Who Killed Her Parents, about Suzane von Richthofen. Although it has flaws, the film vehemently addresses, to the sound of rock 'n' roll, themes such as machismo and the resilience of victims. This new addition to the 2024 true crime catalog is an opportunity to reflect on violence against women and society's failings.
