'I'm Still Here' makes history as first Brazilian film to win best international feature
SAO PAULO, March 2 (Reuters) - Brazilian movie " I Am Still Here", set against the backdrop of the military dictatorship and recounting the true story of a mother of five whose husband disappears, made history on Sunday by earning Brazil its first Oscar in a main category. In his acceptance speech, director Walter Salles dedicated the award to a woman who decided "not to bend and to resist." "This goes to her, Eunice Paiva, and it goes to the two extraordinary women who gave life to her, Fernanda Torres and Fernanda Montenegro," he said. Adapted from the poignant 2015 memoir written by Marcelo Rubens Paiva, the son of main character Eunice Paiva, "I Am Still Here" shares family's heart-wrenching story of loss and resilience in the face of oppression. The Paiva family was among the many victims of the military regime in Brazil, which lasted for 21 years and was established following a coup d'etat by the armed forces in 1964. During this period, thousands of people were detained, tortured, and hundreds forcibly disappeared, with many being exiled and persecuted. The last Brazilian film to be nominated by the Academy in the international category was "Central Station" in 1999, also directed by Salles. In 1960, France, Italy, Brazil co-production "Black Orpheus", with a predominantly Brazilian cast and French direction won the international category, but the recipient of the prize was France. The Oscars ceremony coincided with Brazil's Carnival, and as the news of the win spread, the streets erupted in joy. Thousands of revelers, many of whom were holding Oscar statuettes or dressed as Academy Awards nominee Fernanda Torres, celebrated with music, dance, and festivities.

Brazil's 'I'm Still Here' wins best international film Oscar
LOS ANGELES, March 2 (Reuters) - Brazilian drama "I'm Still Here," about a matriarch whose husband is taken away by the military regime that ruled the country in the 1970s, won the Academy Award for best international feature film on Sunday. The film, which also earned nominations for best actress and best picture, tells the true story of Eunice Paiva's struggle to uncover the truth about her husband's forced disappearance in 1971. It was directed by Walter Salles, whose 1998 film "Central Station" was also nominated for best foreign film, as the category was then known. A number of Brazilian productions have been nominated in the international feature, directing and documentary categories, but none has won, although "Black Orpheus," a Brazilian co-production with France and Italy, won in 1959. The other nominees this year were France's "Emilia Perez," "The Seed of the Sacred Fig" from Germany, Latvian animated film "Flow," which also competed in the animated feature category, and Denmark's "The Girl with the Needle."
