10 Sept 2026 | MORTE E VIDA MADALENA (BR/PT, 2025, Guto Parente)
BR/PT 2025, D: Guto Parente, A: Noá Bonoba, Tavinho Teixeira, Nataly Rocha, 85′, OV with English subtitles, DCP
Madalena is a film producer and eight months pregnant. She wants to make a low-budget science fiction film with her friends, as a tribute to her father, who wrote the screenplay and has just passed away. When Davi, the director and her ex-husband, mysteriously disappears from the film set, Madalena is forced to act: she must do everything she can to finish the film before her baby is born.
Set on the coast of northern Brazil, Parente’s humorous film brings together a charming ensemble cast, oscillating between quirky telenovela with vibrant colours and sentimentality and melodrama with a political stand. DEATH AND LIFE MADALENA is an ode to non-conformist artists and mutual solidarity, to the liberating power of self-deprecating humour and queer friendship.
