With Walter Salles newest film I’m Still Here in cinemas, we return his beautifully realised Central Station from 1998 to our biggest screen. This hauntingly beautiful film is an exploration of grief, redemption, and the undeniable need for human connection. A schoolteacher and a young boy embark on a cross-country journey through Brazil. In their travels the duo confront themes of loss, survival, and the harsh realities of Brazilian society. Salles proves that he’s a master in directing emotion and this film is both touching and quietly devastating. Portuguese with English subtitles.
