Three Sad Aunts

What begins as a true-crime drama about three women — one imprisoned during a dictatorship, another who fled Brazil, and a third who took her own life — shifts when their nephew, now a father and the film’s director, steps in and questions his own narrative. Through archival footage and journeys, he seeks to reunite his family while his children teach him a new way of looking toward the future.
