Power Alley (Levante) by Lillah Halla - 2023 Cannes Film Festival Semaine de la Critique selection - is a gripping Brazilian drama that weaves a tale of personal struggle and societal challenges.

Set in São Paulo, it follows Sofia, a spirited teen volleyball player from a modest background, whose life takes a dramatic turn when she faces an unwanted pregnancy. In a society marred by rigid conservatism and restrictive women’s rights, Sofia's story becomes a fight for autonomy and identity.

She is surrounded by a supportive team, including trans and non-binary members making the film a vivid exploration of queer sisterhood and resilience against the odds.
A poignant narrative promises to engage and inspire audiences, bringing a fresh, powerful voice to critical contemporary issues.
