An amazing journey into the wild reality

Created from a deep experience in that world. Highly recommended in many ways.

Sensitive and human

It surprised me to watch a movie that was made on a Brazilian favela and the main character is a woman! Well, a teenage girl, to be more specific. This is a movie that talks about many important issues, human rights and relations.

HONEST, POWERFUL AND INTIMATE... TWO THUMBS UP!

"Pacified" is a visually striking and honest account of the hopes and struggles of an impoverished community in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The film is a powerful and intimate storytelling that seamlessly brings you deep into the humanity of its characters, many which were not actors, but the very people from that community, elevating the truthfulness of the story and nuances of the characters. "Pacified" brought me from tears to smiles and back numerous times. TWO THUMBS UP!

I watched "Pacified" at the Tribeca Film Festival (2021).
