The French Teacher (2026)
Graça, a lesbian woman living in Belo Horizonte with her French girlfriend Clara, gives private French lessons to support herself in a large Brazilian metropolis. As an independent Black woman from a lower-middle-class background, she finds herself confronted by the dark side of religious fanaticism when she is forced to live with an extremist evangelical family that gradually involves her in a mysterious plot that leads her to lose her mind.
