Set against Brazil’s military dictatorship and the nation’s fervor for the 1970 World Cup, this heartfelt coming-of-age drama follows 12-year-old Mauro, whose parents vanish under political threat. Left in the care of a vibrant Jewish community in São Paulo’s Bom Retiro district, Mauro navigates identity, belonging, and resilience amid upheaval and hope. Blending themes of political exile, cultural intersection, and youthful longing, the film offers a poignant exploration of Jewish life in Latin America during turbulent times. RSVP via Emanumail.
