Bortoluci's 'What Is Mine' narrates the life of his truck driver father, revealing a personal and national journey through Brazil's socio-political changes and economic challenges.
As forests and rivers gave way to infrastructure, Didi’s experiences as a truck driver encapsulated the intersection of personal history with the broader narrative of Brazil's development.
The work reflects on class mobility in Brazil, illustrating Bortoluci's journey from a working-class background to academia while examining his father's life and sacrifices.
'How do you narrate the life of an ordinary man?' Bortoluci's inquiry connects personal narratives with the greater story of a nation shaped by many such lives.
