Brazilian actor Torres delivers a tour-de-force performance worthy of the extraordinary Eunice Paiva, the central figure in this impressive drama based on real events.

...a sensitive depiction of the forced disappearance of former congressman Rubens Paiva, and the devastation his family faced.

...Fernanda Torres gives a strikingly understated performance in the lead role.

Fernanda Torres is mesmerising in this masterful Oscars hopeful.

...loving family negotiates the horror of Brazil’s military rule.
