In Brasília, the program will be shown at Liberty Mall and Cinesystem, but the complete agenda in all participating municipalities can be seen on the event's official website.

"We Still Have Tomorrow" tells the story of a woman who begins to question her role in postwar Rome to prevent her eldest daughter, about to get married, from suffering the same fate as her.

Released in Italy at the end of October and shown in black and white, the film led the box office collection in the European country in 2023, with 36,6 million euros, surpassing the blockbusters “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer”, and fueled the debate on issues such as patriarchy and female empowerment.
