The documentary film “MI\u00daCHA: THE VOICE OF BOSSA NOVA<\/strong><\/a>” from a feminist perspective tells about the history of this famous Brazilian musical direction through the dramatic life story of Mi\u00facha, the only artist who composed, recorded and performed with the golden Bossa Nova trio – Tom Jobim, Vinicius de Moraes and Jo\u00e3o Gilbert, whose role has not been sufficiently evaluated so far. In the distribution of Restart, Liliana Mutti<\/strong>‘s film will be shown in Croatian cinemas in June as an introduction to the Documentary Summer and premiered in Zagreb’s Dokukino KIC<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Spanning 20 years, from 1962 to 1982, the film follows Mi\u00facha’s struggle to become a recognized singer as well as her turbulent marriage to Bossa Nova pioneer Jo\u00e3o Gilberto. Using home 16 mm footage, Mi\u00facha’s diaries and letters, the film carefully captures every moment of their common ups and downs in the turbulent times in which they lived and worked, and part of their successes, but also poverty and madness, was conveyed through the artist’s delicate watercolors. Mi\u00facha: The voice of Bossa Nova brings the hitherto untold story of the flourishing anti-music and thus breaks the hitherto exclusively male narrative of this Brazilian musical phenomenon.<\/p>\n
