“Produced by Prana Filmes, to be released in 2018, Resistance focuses on the love triangle between fictional characters engulfed by the whirlwind of the events of those 14 days. Fernando Alves Pinto, a well-known face of the national cinema, protagonist of ‘Terra Estrangeira’ and ‘Dois Coelhos’, lives the anthropologist Luis Carlos, who fights with his brother, the journalist Tonho (José Henrique Ligabue), the attentions of the international correspondent Cecília, interpreted by Cleo. The character of Luis Carlos is one of the ways the director anchors, in a symbolic way, the history of Legality in a bigger picture of tensions of the national history.”

“Starring Cléo, Fernando Alves Pinto and Leonardo Machado, the film will rescue an important episode that marked political life in the second half of the twentieth century in Brazil, combining historical research and reconstitution with a fictional plot.”

“ZECA BRITO: Actually, the first person that me and Léo Garcia looked for, when we were with the project ready, was Luciana Tomasi, from Prana Films. We were looking for a producer who could tell this story and raise this project, which we knew would take time to materialize. First of all, because of the complexity of the story itself, to synthesize a real story within a cinematic narrative of 90, or whatever, 120 minutes, and also because of the complexity of reconstituting an era, which has a cost and such, and that would require a producer who would have had the courage to face this project for a long time. And Luciana was the one who believed in it.”
