With her radical voice, visceral improvisation, and unmistakable rasp, Elza Soares created a language of her own and spanned generations, constantly reinventing herself as one of Brazil’s greatest artists. In the documentary that bears her name, Elza narrates her own story, weaving a diary of memories, desires, and reflections through music, in dialogue with landmark Brazilian films. Through Elza and her nearly century-long life, the film offers a portrait of a country in turmoil. The Woman at the End of the World sang until the very end.
