The box office rankings in Italy last week were led by Alessandro Genovesi's comedy "Dieci giorni con i suoi" with an audience of 118.299 people, followed by "A Complete Stranger", the Bob Dylan biopic directed by James Mangold, with 108.359, and "The Brutalist", by Brady Corbet, with 80.853.
“I'm Still Here” tells the story of Eunice Paiva (Fernanda Torres), a mother of five children whose life was turned upside down after the kidnapping, arrest and disappearance of her husband, former congressman Rubens Paiva (Selton Mello), by the military dictatorship.
The film is inspired by the book of the same name by Marcelo Rubens Paiva, son of Eunice and Rubens. (HANDLE)
