Pro Dia Nascer Feliz

João Jardim

"Pro Dia Nascer Feliz" é o segundo longa-metragem do diretor João Jardim, diretor do cultuado documentário "Janela da Alma" que, em 2002, bateu recordes de público no gênero. Através de uma investigação do relacionamento do adolescente com a escola - ambiente fundamental em sua formação - o diretor traz à tona, além de questões comuns a qualquer adolescente dentro do ambiente escolar, questões como a desigualdade social e o impacto da banalização da violência no desenvolvimento de muitos desses jovens.

Walter Carvalho, João Jardim

Nineteen people with differing degrees of visual impairment – from mild nearsightedness to total blindness – discuss how they see themselves, how they see others and how they perceive the world. Unusual images, of burning trees or empty deserts, link the interviews, which vary from deep to funny to poetic.

The movie depicts the political crisis that led to the suicide of president Getúlio Vargas, in the 19 days that preceded August 24, 1954. The crisis began with the attempted assassination of journalist and politician Carlos Lacerda in August 5, 1954, at rua Toneleros, Rio de Janeiro, in which Major Vaz was assassinated instead. Investigations pointed to Gregório Fortunato, chief of Vargas' personal guard, as the orderer of the frustrated assassination. This incident was one of the most importants in the history of Brazil.
