Where I Grow Old

Where I Grow Old

2017 · 99 min · ★ 5.5 · Drama

Two young Portuguese women try to put down roots in Brazil. Teresa is newly arrived; Francisca has been there a while. This sure-footed, loving portrait of two counterparts, attracting and repelling, is also an ode to Belo Horizonte: a city with no tourist attractions, but bags of atmosphere and lust for life.

Directed by Marília Rocha · Written by Thais Fujinaga
