Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta

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!

The idea behind this project is absolutely brilliant! I thoroughly enjoyed delving into the other side of her persona. The narrative structure is well-crafted, seamlessly weaving together different elements to reveal an exclusive glimpse into her world. The footage is not only exclusive but also captivating, offering a unique perspective that kept me engaged throughout. It's refreshing to see such creativity and storytelling prowess in action! I really think is worthy to watch it. Not only Anitta's fan but everyone that wants to understand the woman behind the artist and all the struggles she hides.

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.

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.

"Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta," Netflix's latest documentary, offers an intimate and revealing look into the life of Larissa de Macedo Machado, known worldwide as Anitta. Unlike previous productions, such as "Vai Anitta" (2018) and "Anitta: Made in Honório" (2020), which emphasized her professional trajectory, this film delves deeply into the artist's personal sphere, highlighting her search for self-knowledge and balance between the pressure of fame and her individual needs.

Directed by João Wainer and Pedro Cantelmo, the documentary stands out for its sensitive and authentic approach, capturing moments of vulnerability and reflection. The close relationship between Anitta and Cantelmo, a former childhood sweetheart, adds a layer of intimacy to the narrative, allowing for a deeper exploration of her identity beyond the stage.

The production also sheds light on Anitta's complex relationship with her family, especially her mother, Miriam Macedo, and how these dynamics influenced her personal and professional development. In addition, the film addresses significant moments in her international career, such as the meteoric rise of "Envolver" and her historic performance at Coachella, highlighting the challenges and triumphs that accompany her artistic journey.

In short, "Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta" is an engaging work that humanizes one of the biggest stars in Brazilian music, offering the audience a rare and honest perspective of her life beyond the spotlight.
