Só Amor Não Basta (1977)

Documentary about working mothers who, without government support, have to struggle to care for their children. Through interviews and an intimate camera that wanders through the daily lives of the characters – a bus conductor, a woman who cares for more than ten children in a precarious home, a teacher at an improvised daycare center, among others – Lóes constructs a sensitive and precise argument about the division of care work.

Director: Dilma Lóes
