So Hard to Forget

The sentimental Julia meets the bold and attentive Helena, and finally the long-lost fortress is finally captured. Although not sure about the feelings of the details, at least it is a new beginning. The whole film is full of literary atmosphere. The narration that appears from time to time adds a touch of sadness. Julia's repressive and self-personal personality sometimes makes people crazy.

The plot captivates by bringing a palpable and widely identifiable situation, providing the film with an interesting approach to post-relationship depression.

The secondary characters don't work as well as the main character, being the only element that brings ease.

Unfortunately, the plot develops in poorly unimmersive scenarios, rounded by bad shooting and framing.

If you are Brazilian, if you know Brazil, or at least a Brazilian, you will understand the film. I love this movie. It is not always an easy task to let someone out of your life. At some point in the film, Julia says, "It is not possible to live without life". This is exactly the dramatic way of life that is characteristic of "Latinos." There is a kind of poetry in Julia's fight.

The movie is full of symbols: the girl in red, the Garden in the new house, the soundtrack (I love it).

I love the fact that Antonia is present throughout the film (Julia's ex-girlfriend), although we never know her.

Ana Paula Arósio, Murillo Rosa, Arieta Corrêa, Bianca Comparato, Natalia Lage and Pierri Baitelli are very close and do very well.

I recommend this movie. It's an introspective story. We went through all the suffering of the broken relationship and its repercussion.

It is a shame that films in Portuguese language are not well known around the world.
