Brick by Brick (Tijolo por tijolo)

A film still from Brick by Brick shows a woman with a soft gaze looking into the distance at night, her hand resting gently on her opposite shoulder in a self-embrace. She has curly hair that fades from black to hot pink. The background is blurred, filled with soft dots of light.

In Ibura, on the outskirts of Recife, Cris lost her job at the beginning of the Covid pandemic, as well as the house she lived in with three small children, due to the risk of collapse. Pregnant with her fourth child and trying to get a tubal ligation, she works as a digital influencer while trying to rebuild her house and restructure her life.
