Sonia Braga plays Clara, a retired Brazilian music critic facing eviction from the apartment where she has live for decades. The director, Kleber Mendonca Filho (himself a former critic), turns her plight into a humane, sexy meditation on art, aging and life and also a biting critique of the corruption and materialism that threaten Brazil's cultural identity. In Portuguese with English subtitles.
