Just Like Our Parents

Watch Trailer
2017 · 102 min Drama
7.2 / 10 · TMDB

Rosa, a forty-year-old journalist in São Paulo, realizes her life has become a precise replica of her mother's—the very existence she always criticized. Juggling deadlines, family duties, and a quiet internal revolt, she struggles to carve out a path distinctly her own. As she navigates the expectations of her husband, her growing daughter, and the ghost of maternal legacy, the film delicately traces the fragile line between inherited patterns and hard-won autonomy.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Laís Bodanzky directs not merely a family drama, but a precise excavation of the social and gendered cages we inherit. The camera lingers on the silence between dialogues, on the quiet fatigue behind a smile.

What lingers after the credits is a resonant, uncomfortable question about the architecture of a life. The film suggests that rebellion often wears the face of subtle, daily recalibration. — MovieFinder Editorial

Best Watched

The stifling quiet of a family dinner, the humid weight of unspoken expectations, a life measured in soft furniture and gentle compromises.
