2016, Brazil\/France (subtitled), 146 min.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sonia Braga delivers a wonderful performance as a widowed 65-year-old who is being pressured by her adult children, as well as developers, to leave her longtime home, a sunny, spacious but shabby, beachside apartment in Recife, Brazil. The reason she stays\u2014though common sense dictates she should bolt\u2014provides the movie\u2019s philosophical backbone: the apartment is a metaphor for her soul. It\u2019s where she is truly herself and at peace. To her children, Clara is the stubborn matriarch; to her friends, she\u2019s a vibrant, bawdy presence. To the world, she\u2019s a veteran music critic anchored to the past. Everyone is correct. Everyone is wrong. The great joy of Kleber Mendon\u00e7a Filho\u2019s terrific, challenging drama is seeing Clara constantly defy easy categorization. It turns out that self-growth does not have an expiration date.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
