A good glance into the Brazilian urban everyday life
Aquarius is an interesting film, which has a good photography and a beautiful soundtrack, besides a compelling performance of the cast. Sonia Braga is great, playing a mature woman who stands for her rights and opinions. The story is shot in Recife and slowly presents the almost silent tug of war between Clara (Sonia) and the construction company. They want Clara sells them her apartment – the last one to be sold in the whole building – for the construction of a new property. The development of the characters is good, Kleber Mendonça Filho finds the correct pace for telling us Clara’s story, so we can see why is so important to her to stay living in that place. In the other side, we have enough clues of how bad the other people fight against Clara, because there’s real money and other interests involved. Although I think it worths watching, I recognize it is not a film for everyone; maybe some details only can be truly understood for people who has spent some time living in Brazil. I refer to the almost invisible social war between wealthy and poor people, represented in many subtle dialogues, gestures, and eye contact among characters. That’s why I don’t give 10, as a warning for non-Brazilian spectators.

Terrific
In Aquarius the social criticism usual in the Brazilian cinema is delivered by a strong protagonist inside a history about memory and the link between people and the materiality.

-Spoilers (not much)-

We meet Clara, a 60 year old retired journalist and writer, who lives now alone in an old apartment building where once she got married and raised her children. There are no other residents and a pressure from a construction company (which bought all the other apartments) for the replacement of the building, so she needs to find strength in her memories to face the harassment that becomes more and more threatening.
