The international campaign wants to put “Aquarius” in the race for the Oscar in 2017 – The Workaround

all is Not lost for Aquarius, the brazilian film that became involved in a great political dispute and was left out of the national race for the Oscar.

long was accused of being "left-wing" and "the work of the EN" after the team of the film spoke out against the impeachment of Dilma Rousseff in full red carpet Cannes.

But now there is an effort to bring Aquarius to the Oscar, if not for the indication of brazil, by other means.

Who gave the information was the web site Screen Daily. Basically, the effort comes from the junction of both the team Aquarius as the Vitagraph Films, the american distributor of the long.

The idea is to start a campaign for Aquarius be able to sell Sonia Braga as one of the competitors in the Best Actress category.

During the Festival Zurich, the director of the film, Kleber Mendonça Filho, gave an interview to the Screen Daily and told a little bit about this alternative.

According to him, the distributor will try to put Sonia Braga on the category through a campaign that starts at a dinner in Los Angeles in two weeks.

Though much praised internationally, the film has suffered a great resistance in the own brazilian soil.

After the demonstrations of the team in Cannes, a ward that is now within the fears made harsh criticism to the act. And that was precisely one of the members that helped me choose the brazilian movie that will compete at the academy awards.

Many film makers withdrew their entries in an attempt to strengthen Aquarius to the national alert, but this was in vain, and the chosen one ended up being Little Secret, David Schurmann.

Yet on account of the developments of the impeachment, a lot of people ended up believing that the long-Kleber Mendonça Filho had stolen public money for its production.

the Internet aside from many people criticize and destroy the movie in the comments in the social networks for precisely that reason, arguing that Aquarius represents all the negativity and roubalheira of the Workers ‘ Party.

Not hard to remember that all of this is pretty sad, mostly because of the greed politicians are exalted and a lot of talk lying arises with each new day, in various places.

Who loses with this we are ourselves, that we are allowing to pass a real chance of recognition of our cinema abroad.

Torcemos for the Vitagraph be able to enter Sonia in the Best Actress category. It would be a great gain for our country in the international film industry.
