Shows Cinema and Human Rights goes to Sunday in SP

Is already rolling on the SESC Cine and Movie Memorabilia Room 6. Mostra Film and Human Rights in South America runs until Sunday in Sao Paulo, but provides free performances to a day. Nov. in other Brazilian cities, with the display of 46 titles from various countries. Including some unpublished, such as “Who Cares,” Mara Mourao, “Eternity No Heaven” by Eliane Caffé, “And the Earth Did the Word” by Erika Bauer.

Will be presented as well as first run productions in Brazil, films made in different countries of the continent, such as Colombia, Paraguay and Venezuela. The show is sponsored by the Human Rights Secretariat of the Presidency, with production of Brazilian Cinema.

Titles are chosen for their content defined, focused on the offense or the defense of basic human rights. A good example is “Diary of a search” by Flavia Castro, who appears today. The film tells of a time when those rights were violated as part of a state policy. The director recalls his life as a daughter of exiles, through several countries, a process that memoir is also witness to a time when no one wants to go back. Or almost no one.

“Who Cares,” Mara Mourao, even today, brings together a series of 18 “social entrepreneurs”. People of good will, that does not conform to the ways of the world and seeks to make it more humane and livable. The film opened the show, Monday at Cine SESC, in the presence of Minister Maria do Rosario, the Special Secretariat of Human Rights. “The show, in addition to dialogue with our cinematic theme is consistent, composed of great titles,” said the minister, praising the curator, in charge of Francisco Cesar Filho.

In fact, the show also brings important titles that are already part of the history of Latin American cinema. These are the cases of Brazil “Seven Headed Beast,” “Summer Rains” and “Central do Brazil,” and Cuban “Strawberry and Chocolate.” Movies that dialogue with the problems of childhood, youth, old age, and denounce the bigotry against homosexuals in closed societies. That is, in all. The information is the newspaper O Estado de S. Paulo.
