Elles Cinema screened the Brazilian drama The Son of a Thousand Men, produced by Netflix, as part of its film program dedicated to human-centered cinema that opens spaces for reflection and dialogue.
The film tells the story of “Crisóstomo,” a solitary fisherman whose life shifts when he adopts an orphaned child, forming an unconventional relationship built on choice and love rather than biological ties.
The screening offered a poetic cinematic experience that explores themes of loneliness, longing, and acceptance, while revisiting the idea of “family” beyond traditional definitions in a quiet visual narrative that invites contemplation.
