I have seen some books, plays and movies about South America, all of them are fantastical. In my impression, South America is bizarre, colorful and passionate.
The filters and composition of this film are in line with this colorful continent, making the audience feel delighted; the fantastic story and excellent editing are great in terms of stability and look and feel.
The film tells the story of a pair of sisters in Rio de Janeiro in the 1950s. They were separated because their sister and lover ran away from home. They lived in the same city all their lives. They missed each other but were misled by their father and husband and never saw each other again.
The two sisters represent two types of women, housewives and single mothers. The focus of the film is on the changes in their circumstances and psychological emotions under the influence of the Rio social environment.
Not only in Brazil in the 1950s, but also in the world of the 21st century, there are still many countries where patriarchy is light or heavy. In such a society, women are reduced to reproductive tools, and all dreams and freedom must be given to the family. In such a traditional family, fathers and husbands use the so-called "feminine virtues" to brainwash women, and children subtly believe that this kind of control and being controlled is what the world looks like.
The issue of feminism is not only the process of women striving for the interests of the group, but also the pursuit of the progress of human civilization, which profoundly affects every man. The relationship between men and women is the most important relationship in human emotions. The tension and possessive resistance caused by patriarchy will undoubtedly affect everyone's life and exploit people's happiness.
