CORALINA learned to scream to scare away evil. VALENTINA exercises and draws when the day dawns. BALBINA performs physical and spiritual cleansing; Her gift is organizing situations. GODOFREDO, romantic and attentive, works playing music and is great at livening up parties. COSMA, a singing dancer, who knows everything about philosophy, is DAMIANA's sister who writes love songs for beginning composers. MARGARIDA ran away from home at a young age and is a professional at doing hairstyles. ERANDIR wants to discover the world by dancing. ARIEL, an impeccable makeup artist, sells ice cream in the square. The troupe of artists pulled themselves out of their hole and stood up. As in a dream, they rehearsed a few steps and followed, with rhymes and risks… happily.

Directed by Andréia Pires, Prosopopeia leans on a strong ensemble — Aline Monteiro, Ariza Torquato, Di Ferreira — 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 screen titles of 2022.
