Memoria Viva

It was March 14, 2018. Shots rang out on that hot, summer night. Just another night in Rio, had it not been for the victim, councilwoman Marielle Franco, gunned down brutally, as she returned home from an event only a few miles away. The perpetrator? That's the question that still has no response. "Memória Viva" explores the legacy of councilwoman Franco through the prism of the streets. It examines the vandalism and graffiti art that keep her memory alive. As the investigations continue and another anniversary of her death approaches, the questions remain, but the streets don't forget, and this outpouring of love and support reflect the impact of Marielle on this city.
