Brazil

AFTER THE RAIN [Depois da chuva]
Q&A with filmmaker Cláudio Marques on Sep 23

1984. After 20 years of dictatorship, the people of Brazil are excited for their first free presidential election, while teenager Caio sets his sights on the equally contested student council campaign. Coming of age alongside the newly freed country, where real change seemed possible, the anarchist-leaning Caio stands up for his beliefs. Aided by his first love Fernanda in his struggle for justice, he must accept that as much as things change, they still stay the same. Directing duo Cláudio Marques and Marília Hughes' punky political allegory provides a rare insight into this turbulent transitional period in Brazil's history. Official Selection, 2014 BAFICI and Rotterdam Film Festivals.
