The Sheffield culture guide written by in-the-know locals

I'm Still Here

Brazil, 1971 – the country faces the tightening grip of a military dictatorship.

Eunice Paiva, a mother of five children, is forced to reinvent herself after her family suffers the act of "disappearance" by the government.

Based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva's biographical book, I'm Still Here tells the true story that helped reconstruct an important part of Brazil's hidden history.

A moving and powerful memory of one Brazilian family's search for answers against a brutal regime – carried by Fernanda Torres' incredible Oscar-nominated central performance – becoming an inspiring story of resistance and resilience amidst a nation's upheaval.
