CIDADE; CAMPO
A film by Juliana Rojas
(Brazil/Germany/France, 2024, 119 min, In Portuguese with English subtitles)
The latest film by acclaimed Brazilian director Juliana Rojas (GOOD MANNERS) – winner of the Best Director Award at Berlinale’s Encounters competition – weaves two stories of migration, memory, and haunting loss. After a catastrophic flood devastates her rural land, Joana flees to São Paulo with her sister and grandson, struggling to rebuild her life amid the city’s chaos, haunted by what she left behind. Meanwhile, Flavia, grappling with her estranged father’s death, moves with her wife Mara to his remote farm, confronting lingering family ghosts and unresolved grief. Through these parallel journeys, CIDADE; CAMPO offers a powerful meditation on the search for belonging and the fragile, often invisible bonds that connect us to the places we call home.
