Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta

This documentary represents a milestone in the genre, transcending the surface of fame and delving, with rare sensitivity, into the most intimate layers of its protagonist. The narrative is constructed with precision, balancing emotional authenticity and social relevance, never resorting to artifice or sensationalism.

The strength of this work lies in its ability to provoke deep reflections, humanizing a public figure while exposing the invisible complexities behind the media image. It is a production that not only documents a journey but also questions, moves, and inspires.

Given its narrative power and cultural impact, this documentary not only deserves recognition but also demonstrates undeniable merit to be celebrated on the international stage. It is a work with all the necessary qualities to be awarded the Emmy Award for Best Documentary, solidifying its artistic and social relevance.

We can finally get to know who Larissa is, after seeing Anitta shine for so long. Through the eyes of Pedro, her childhood friend, we can see her. She is vulnerable, smart, and sweet. She is deep.

This movie does not focus on her accomplishments and victories, it shows a different side of Anitta that's been hidden from the general public. And it also makes us think about our own lives, accomplishments and the meaning of life.

I've been crying and rethinking my whole life after watching this movie. Am I choosing to be happy? Am I not? What can I change?

Go watch it, I promise you won't regret it. Amazing!

I LOVE SO MUCH THIS HISTORY, is the very interesting. She's a singer and the movie shows how is very important the real person in her live.

Thanks Anitta for shows how is important to be happy in our lifes.

I love so so so much, thanks, is the second time that i see this movie. I am in love with this movie, the song is beautiful and make me a cry, thank you Anitta.

Every time that i remember how is important see the life with good eyes, to be a freedom, how is important have a family that give all suport for everything that you need. The family that like you, that love you, and have all. Thanks!

If documentaries were just glorified Instagram stories, Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta would be influencer of the year-glossy, over-edited, and thin on substance.

Anitta's journey from Rio's Honório neighborhood to global stardom is inspiring, packed with enough drama and grit for a compelling documentary. This film promises to reveal "Larissa," the woman behind the pop star. But instead of depth, we get a 90-minute PR reel-montages of Coachella, Carnaval, VMAs, Latin Grammys, and her Madame Tussauds wax figure unveiling.

Even its attempt at vulnerability-comparing her struggles to Carmen Miranda's and escaping to the Himalayas for yoga and skiing-feels unconvincing. A great story was there for the taking, but this film settles for bite-sized moments aimed at Instagram and TikTok audiences who might not bother with her previous Netflix docuseries.

As a fan, I'm thrilled to finally be able to meet Larissa, so loving, human and who's been through so much through Anitta. Anitta, Larissa, I love you in all or nothing, in funk generation/romeo or mantras. Thank you for letting us know you a little bit. Just watch!

Larissa is so interesting that it shocks Anitta to think that no one would be interested in her. The creator of the phenomenon that is Anitta is so intelligent, loving and strong! When she gets bad news, Larissa doesn't let Anitta lose her commitment. What a strong sheila, how lucky we can live around the same time as Anitta. Watch the documentary and listen to ROMEO and the Funk Generation.
