Na Minha Época

In the city of Campo Grande/MS, a boy refuses to go to school because, after all, the game on his cell phone is much cooler than any class. At that moment, her grandmother intervenes and, based on her stories as a girl, demonstrates to this child what life was like in her time. Going to school was a challenge to be overcome. So wait! Was it an adventure? In Miguel's view, yes. From there, the gaze of an imaginative and adventurous child shapes the previously inhabited spaces of a city.

Directed by Briza Azevedo, Na Minha Época leans on a strong ensemble — Brenda Mayer, Helen Helene, Helena Fruet — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 2024.
