Just unearthed an exclusive 35mm scan of "A Menina e o Cavalo" (1983) — the lost Brazilian fantasy film that was buried for 40 years.
Directed by Vítor-Ponte Correia, the film tells the story of Gláucia, a young girl who dreams of nothing more than owning a horse. Living a humble life, she takes a job at a local stable to be close to the animals she adores. The narrative follows a classic coming-of-age trajectory: Gláucia falls in love with a wealthy man, faces the disapproval of his aristocratic family, and eventually navigates a scandal that threatens her happiness.
