1966 (58 лет)Uma História Severina
Debora Diniz, Eliane Brum
The documentary narrates the painful pilgrimage of Severina, a woman living in Chã Grande, in Pernambuco's countryside, who is in search of her right to abort the brainless fetus that she carried in her uterus. On the day that the Brazilian Supreme Court cancelled the right to abortion, Severina was in a hospital to interrupt her four-month-long pregnancy. The surgery was then canceled and the painful journey of Severina and her husband Rosivaldo began. The story of this mother ends in a long and painful day which wasn't witnessed by the Supreme Court judges.

Gretchen: Filme Estrada
Paschoal Samora, Eliane Brum
Gretchen
In 2008, Gretchen divided her twerking between the stage and the podium. The singer and dancer – also known as the "Booty Queen" – traveled through villages in the northeast of Brazil, making a living as an artist in local circuses and making noise in her campaign for mayor of Itamaracá Island, in Pernambuco. From circus to circus, the film records the performer's experiences to face her political opponents and her new audience, the electorate.

Laerte-se
Lygia Barbosa da Silva, Eliane Brum
Laerte Coutinho, Eliane Brum
In this film, Laerte conjugates the body in the feminine, and scrutinizes concepts and prejudices. Not in search of an identity, but in search of un-identities. Laerte creates and sends creatures to face reality in the fictional world of comic strips as a vanguard of the self. And, on the streets, the one who becomes the fiction of a real character. Laerte, of all the bodies, and of none, complicates all binaries. In following Laerte, this documentary chooses to clothe the nudity beyond the skin we inhabit.

Aracy Moebius de Carvalho was head of the passport sector at the Brazilian consulate in Hamburg, Germany. There he met - and fell in love - with the writer Guimarães Rosa and processed several things to emigrate to Brazil, escaping Nazism. Aracy passed away forgotten, victim of Alzheimer's, but remains alive in the memory that only exists today thanks to her insubordination.
