Synopsis: Set in 1970s Rio de Janeiro, I’m Still Here follows the Paiva family—led by Eunice (Fernanda Torres) and Rubens (Selton Mello)—as they navigate the creeping terror of Brazil’s military dictatorship. When Rubens, a former congressman secretly aiding the opposition, is abducted by government agents, Eunice must protect her five children while searching for answers in a climate of fear and silence. Based on Marcelo Rubens Paiva’s memoir "Ainda Estou Aqui", the film dramatizes a true story of resilience, loss, and quiet defiance.
