Globo's traditional afternoon slot continues to be one of the most sought after by those looking for entertainment during the afternoon, especially during holidays and periods of greater time at home. This week, the broadcaster balances social themes, overcoming, friendship and adventure in its selection.
Below, check out the complete Afternoon Session programming and learn more about each film aired.
Monday (20/04): What Time Does She Come Back?
The highlight of Monday is the award-winning Brazilian drama "What Time Does She Come Back?", directed by Anna Muylaert and starring Regina Casé.
In the plot, Val works as a housekeeper in São Paulo and has lived for years in her employers' house, maintaining a relationship marked by closeness and social distance. Her routine changes completely when her daughter, Jéssica, goes to the capital to take the university entrance exam.
The arrival of the young woman causes discomfort within the house and raises discussions about social inequality, privileges and power relationships between employers and employees.
The film was widely praised by critics and became a reference in national cinema for addressing social issues in a sensitive and direct way. For those looking for a thoughtful and current film, this is an excellent choice.
Tuesday (21/04): We Are All Heroes
On Tuesday, Globo airs "We Are All Heroes", a drama based on real events that marked India in 2018.
The story follows residents of the Kerala region during one of the largest floods ever recorded there. People from different social classes face losses, extreme challenges and must unite to survive the tragedy.
The film stands out for its collective narrative and the way it shows solidarity in moments of crisis. Rather than focusing on just one protagonist, the film presents different human perspectives in the face of disaster.
Wednesday (22/04): The Intern
Wednesday brings a change of tone with the comedy-drama "The Intern", starring Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro.
In the film, Jules is a successful young entrepreneur who runs an online fashion startup. When her company launches an internship program for seniors, she begins to interact with Ben.
