Minha Rainha
Cecilia Amado / Brazil / 2008 / 11 min Grade 5+

In Rio de Janeiro preparations for the greatest carnival in the world are in full swing. The youngest dancer of her Samba school, nine year-old Joseane was chosen as to participate in the carnival parade. Her greatest dream is about to come true, but when the day finally comes, Joseane cannot find her flag. This seems to put an end to her dream, until Clayton, the world‘s best dancer and flag bearer, presents Joseane with a breathtaking gift. In Portuguese with English subtitles.
