Tracee Ellis Ross' top tips for travelling solo

See images of the house where was filmed 'I’m still here', which received three Oscar nominations

Tourists have iguinho com br jogosdiscovered a new photo spot in Rio. Since the movie "I'm still here" premiered in theaters, visitors have been taking pictures in front of the mansion at the corner of Rua Roquete Pinto and Avenida Jo?o Luiz Alves in Urca, located in Rio's South Zone. The property is one of the main settings of the film directed by Walter Salles. The production received three Oscar nominations: Best Picture, the evening's top prize; Best International Film; and Best Actress, for Fernanda Torres. She previously won a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama, an unprecedented achievement for a Brazilian artist. 'I'm still here': Revisit the films that bring together Fernanda Montenegro and Fernanda Torres, mother and daughterWho killed Rubens Paiva: report revealed in 2014 the killer of the former congressman portrayed in the film 'I'm still here' The Urca house that served as a set for 'I’m Still Here', a film with three Oscar nominations — Foto: Gabriel de Paiva Tourists visit the set The garden of the residence in Urca was the setting for some important scenes in 'I’m Still Here' — Foto: Gabriel de Paiva On screen, Fernanda plays Eunice Paiva, the lawyer who kept her family strong without being paralyzed by grief after the torture and death of Rubens Paiva (1929-1971) during the harsh years of the dictatorship. During filming, the residence in Urca was portrayed as the now-defunct home where the couple lived with their five children, by the shores of Praia do Leblon. The location has now become a must-see for cinema enthusiasts, who include it in their city tours. Another angle of the house from 'I’m Still Here' — Foto: Gabriel de Paiva The house as a character Recreated in the film, the carioca home of the Paiva family became another character in the story, reflecting the joys and sorrows of the real-life tale depicted in Marcelo Rubens Paiva's book of the same name. — The relationship between an open, sunny house that is an extension of the beach, and the contrast with the closed curtains after Rubens is taken, is a very symbolic artistic choice. There was always a desire for the location to be a real house, with a genuine connection to the sea, emulating the beachfront feel of the original Paiva family home in Leblon — explains Camila Leal Ferreira, production coordinator at VideoFilmes. The balcony of the house in Urca, which set the stage for the Paiva family story in 'I’m Still Here' — Foto: Gabriel de Paiva The pilgrimage to that corner in Urca lasted all day. Production coordinator Camila recalls how, in 2021, when director Walter Salles expressed his desire for a house in Rio to serve as a location, she took action. Seeking details about the original house, she distributed flyers in the streets of Leblon, requested access to the project from the city hall, and visited the building constructed on the site. She also relied on the professional support of image researcher Antonio Venancio and the memories of Walter Salles himself: the director was a family friend and, in his youth, attended many gatherings at 80 Avenida Delfim Moreira, corner with Rua Almirante Pereira Guimar?es. — This open, welcoming, and inviting house remained in the memory of those who lived alongside the family. I heard this from friends who recognized the atmosphere of the Paiva house in the movie's set — she recounts in an interview with O Globo earlier this month. The 500-square-meter property in Urca, on the market for R$13.9 million, served its purpose admirably but now presents a different appearance from what it shows in the film. It has regained contemporary details, such as a pool surrounded by a deck on the veranda and a granite table awaiting the completion of interior renovations. The wooden staircase leading to the children's rooms has been replaced with another featuring glass details.

In 11 other neighborhoods, real settings were adapted to travel back in time. Interestingly, Confeitaria Manon, opened in the city center in 1942, had to be adapted to resemble Chaika, an Ipanema snack bar that only opened in 1962, to host the family for a happy gathering around the table. Selton Mello, Fernanda Torres, Valentina Herszage, and the cast filmed scenes at Confeitaria Manon, which opened in the 1940s — Foto: Press release In Leblon, Livraria Argumento was recreated, and the stretch of beach in front of Avenida Delfim Moreira, which was the family's playground, received a period touch: during filming in mid-2023, the production paid vendors to prevent them from losing business by leaving the sands free and with less commerce, as it was in the 1970s. Nise da Silveira Institute, in Engenho de Dentro, where scenes from 'I’m Still Here' were filmed as if set in Doi-Codi, in Tijuca — Foto: Guilherme Leporace Streets in Glória and downtown, along with the Centro Cultural Light, provided the backdrop for scenes where characters appear in traffic or at the bank. In Túnel Rebou?as, a scene was shot where characters are stopped and searched by the police, while the old facilities of the Instituto Municipal Nise da Silveira, in Engenho de Dentro, housed the DOI-Codi, the setting for Eunice's imprisonment and the torture of those persecuted like Rubens Paiva. Those familiar with the traditional Colégio Sion in Laranjeiras will recognize it in another scene. — This story is also a story of Rio, this beautiful and complex city that holds so many idiosyncrasies. We can only imagine how profound and brutal Rubens' loss was for the Paiva family, who also had to face the grief of leaving Rio — observes the production coordinator. Colégio Sion, in Cosme Velho, where the Paiva children studied, served as a real-life setting in the film — Foto: Gustavo Stephan The translation of this text into english was carried out by Project Irineu, O GLOBO's initiative to develop artificial intelligence tools.
