Vitória Fallavena
Thassilo Weber
Brazil, 2024, 14 min.
In Portuguese with English subtitles.
This film is family friendly.
Fernando meets his mother weekly at a café. During their encounters, he always tells her that he is gay. Ana, who has Alzheimer's, has difficulties in remembering her son's sexuality; what we are left to question is whether she truly forgets or if she chooses not to remember.
Director's Statement
I DON'T KNOW IF I'LL HAVE TO SAY EVERYTHING AGAIN is about communication and human relationships, especially with people we care about. It's about everything within - and between - relationships, fears, generational and cultural barriers, expectations, and family understanding. It talks about acceptance, care, love and also self-love. The idea is to show the importance of being our authentic selves while keeping in mind the value of an affectionate communication. We believe in the power of using a caring dialogue as a way of building relationships with more listening and understanding, without denying our existence.
