Sandra Kogut : 2015
When a little girl turns up on her doorstep, fifty-year-old Regina is unsure what to do. Regina lives in Ipanema, one of Rio de Janeiro's wealthier neighbourhoods, and the five-year-old Rayane is clearly not from around here. She says her mother has told her to stay put until her return. Soon Rayane's nine-year-old brother Ygor arrives too, and Regina wants to take the children directly to an orphanage, but she's convinced by her teenage daughter to let them spend the night. The children are in awe of Regina's enormous home, and as they huddle together to sleep, it becomes obvious that they have only each other to rely on. Regina decides to help them find their family – a plan that will bring her into contact with a world that she barely knew existed. Sandra Kogut's second feature premiered at Toronto International Film Festival 2015.
