Film Description:
Inspired by real events and the alarming number of women who go missing in Brazil each year, this musical short film tells the story of a mother who vanishes without a trace—leaving behind three young sons.
As they grow, each son takes a radically different path: one becomes a musician, one becomes a lawyer, and the other falls into crime. The film explores how trauma, environment, and individual choices shape human destiny—underscoring how the absence of a mother can echo through generations.
Through a fusion of music and narrative cinema, the film weaves social commentary with artistic expression. The original score was composed to reflect the emotional evolution of each character and the cultural pulse of Brazil’s urban periphery.
This piece stands out not only for its cinematic ambition—shot as an 18-minute short with a full narrative arc—but also for its purpose: to raise awareness about a silent crisis in Latin America. Co-produced by Sweet Filmes and KondZilla, the film was just nominee for 2025 Latin Grammy Awards in the Best Music Video – Long Form Music Video category
