€5 – €9This punky and electrifying debut feature from Lilah Halla sees 17-year-old volleyball player Sofia – who is about to be offered a dream scholarship to a college in Chile – discover she is pregnant. She attempts to access an abortion, which is illegal in Brazil, but becomes the target for a religious fundamentalist group who attempt to stop her at all costs – including making her situation public.
Sofia experiences hate crimes and sees her life and her family’s livelihood threatened, but neither she nor those who love her are willing to surrender. As Sofia and her allies resist and challenge an oppressive present, they create a path toward a free future. Together they are powerful in this rebellious triumph.
