So Hard to Forget (2010)
After breaking up with her enigmatic girlfriend Antonia, English Literature teacher Julia is thrown into a totally unforeseen new life when she moves into an idyllic beachside house with best gay friend Hugo and his friend Lisa. Evenings are spent indulging in the trials and tribulations of loves past and present. But before long, crunch time comes in the shape of Lisa's beautiful cousin Helena, who encourages Julia to learn to love once again. A tender, enriching exploration of the passions and pangs one can experience when both deeply in and out of love, So Hard To Forget is a film about falling back in love, and how it really isn't so different from that 'first time'. www.peccapics.com

    This is so Brazilian...

    If you are Brazilian, if you know Brazil, or at least a Brazilian, you will understand the film. I love this movie. It is not always an easy task to let someone out of your life. At some point in the film, Julia says, "It is not possible to live without life". This is exactly the dramatic way of life that is characteristic of "Latinos." There is a kind of poetry in Julia's fight.

    The movie is full of symbols: the girl in red, the Garden in the new house, the soundtrack (I love it).

    I love the fact that Antonia is present throughout the film (Julia's ex-girlfriend), although we never know her.

    Ana Paula Arósio, Murillo Rosa, Arieta Corrêa, Bianca Comparato, Natalia Lage and Pierri Baitelli are very close and do very well.

    I recommend this movie. It's an introspective story. We went through all the suffering of the broken relationship and its repercussion.

    It is a shame that films in Portuguese language are not well known around the world.
