A dive into the intimate and creative universe of writer, screenwriter, and presenter Fernanda Young. The documentary takes an unconventional approach and becomes a poetic essay, using disruptive archive collages and visual and soundscapes of intimate moments. The film is also an invitation to reflect on creativity and artistic courage.

A sensitive reassembly of the Amnesty Caravan apologies to all who have had their lives affected by the civil-military dictatorship in the country. The work uses only archival material and is narrated by Paulo Abrão, former National Secretary of Justice.

"Meu Corpo é Mais" is a documentary that explores women's relationships with their fat bodies and the prejudice faced by bodies that fall outside socially established beauty standards.

A documentary that looks over the contemporary LGBTQIA+ sexuality. The recent arrival in Brazil of two new forms of prevention – PrEP (Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis) and PEP (Post-Exposure Prophylaxis), drugs that promise greater efficacy against HIV/Aids transmission and contagion – enable an intense exercise of sexual practices, bringing new forms of care beyond the use of condoms. Through an intimate and observational record, the film strips of all moral judgement to dive into the user’s daily lives of PrEP, bringing up reflections about desire, sex and protection.

A story of love and revolution told through letters written by a couple in the dungeons of the dictatorship. The emotional bonds tied together the past and present of two oppressed families.
