AUTO RETRATO DO EU

Some versions of ourselves never truly leave us. When the past and present converge, a young woman discovers that growing up also means learning to look back at the person she once was.

A century after his birth, Sérgio Cardoso — one of the greatest stars of Brazilian theater and television — still inhabits the country’s cultural imagination. A symbol of a generation that helped shape modern stage language in Brazil, his presence endures as an artistic, political, and emotional legacy. Through archives, memories, and the rehearsals of the play “Six Actors in Search of Sérgio Cardoso,” the documentary moves between past and present to explore not only the trajectory of a monumental actor, but also what remains of an artist when time transforms men into myth. As a new generation of performers attempts to rediscover his voice, rigor, and restless spirit, the film reveals how Sérgio Cardoso continues to resonate within contemporary theater — as a ghost, an inspiration, and a founding force of a stage tradition still trying to understand itself.

Public health physician Noel Nutels' ideas and the footage he made of Brazilian indigenous peoples between 1940 and 1970 come together to denounce the historic massacre against native communities.
