Overview

Far is a seven-minute Brazilian short set against the backdrop of Brazil's 2018 presidential election. A young woman prepares dinner for her mother, then discovers a homophobic post on social media that reframes their entire relationship. Director Mariana Stolze uses a tight runtime to focus on identity, acceptance, and the quiet grief of realizing a parent may not see you fully. The Progressive label follows naturally. The film centers LGBTQ characters with dignity, includes trans identity as part of its emotional core, and places personal rupture inside a politically charged national moment. It does not advocate loudly; it simply treats queer lives as the default subject worth caring about.

Starring Cast

Gabriela Moreno  •   Juliane Arguello
