Tati (1973)
Movie addresses women's issues very well for the year it was made.

I was 7 years-old when I first saw Tati, a Garota, and I remember enjoying it very much. Even though I was a bit young to fully comment on the story, I recall having lots of feelings about it. I could relate to the girl since I was also raised by an "absent" father - although I knew who he was. My mother went through very similar problems while trying to give me the best education, and shifting all priorities to accomplish so. It wasn't until I turned 40 that I saw the movie again, and the feelings came back with a better understanding of its true meaning. Thanks Bruno Barreto for such a detailed portrait of a single mom's life in the early 70's Rio de Janeiro. Great movie!
