September 30, 2023

“Central Station” is a Brazilian movie that won several awards and even became a worldwide hit! "It’s a deeply moving drama about a cynical, middle-aged woman whose life takes a dramatic turn when she crosses paths with a little boy. The boy’s mother dies, leaving him with no parents, so she’s forced to take him in. While she’s mistrustful of him at first, the two gradually become friends, and they even go on a quest throughout Brazil in search of the boy’s father." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSWgOhRjJmo
