SUMMARY:THE BEST MOTHER IN THE WORLD
DESCRIPTION:Director: Anna Muylaert\nBrazil | 2025 | Portuguese with English subtitles | 105 min |\n**There is a 2nd screening of this film on Sept 7th \nThe Festival is pleased to announce\, as its Opening Night Film\, the North American premiere of the latest film by the incredible Brazilian director\, Anna Muylaert\, (to whom VLAFF dedicated a retrospective in 2016). \nTo escape her abusive husband\, garbage collector Gal packs her two young children\, Rihanna and Benin\, onto the top of her cart and heads across São Paulo to her cousin’s house. As she struggles to avoid the dangers of the streets along the way\, she convinces the children that they are on a big and exciting adventure. When they arrive at her cousin’s house\, they are warmly welcomed and fed. However\, what initially seems like a safe haven soon turns out to be a trap. Gal realizes that not only her own safety is at risk\, but also the future of her children. \nWorld Premiere\, Berlin Film Festival\, 2o25 \n
