Ferro's Bar

Based on historical documents and interviews with lesbian who lived and fought in the 1970s and 1980s, during the military dictatorship, we are guided to a central episode in the formation of the Brazilian lesbian movement, the “Ferro’s Bar Uprising”, known as the “Brazilian Stonewall”. The film shows how lesbians stopped being restricted to the night, the inside of the apartments, and became a political subject that rises up against the censorship, repression and homophobic violence.
