It is a film that really pulls at your heartstrings, showing the life of an incredible woman, with a fascinating history as she struggles to leave her home in Brazil to head to a new life in Portugal. The film, shot and produced by her granddaughter – Carolina Sá, a Portuguese-Brazilian journalist and podcast director. The film, her first, translates in English as “To Say Goodbye”, or “Dizer Adeus” in Portuguese, a very intimate portrait off her grandmother’s farewell to her life in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The material gathered was also crafted into a new narrative as well, this time in the form of a radio documentary or podcast. She spoke to us in Perspective.
