Miúcha, the Voice of Bossa Nova

The most hushed history of bossa nova. Miúcha’s letters, paintings and private recordings reconstruct the life of the only singer who worked, often in the shadows, with giants such as Vinicius de Moraes, Tom Jobim, and her ex-husband Joao Gilberto. The reasons for her longing for freedom, her progressive feminist consciousness and the “sad joy” that exuded from her unique voice.
