Na manhã de uma sexta-feira de setembro, o Brasil perdeu Silvio Tendler, cineasta que dedicou mais de cinco décadas a preservar o que o poder preferia apagar. Morto aos 75 anos por infecção generalizada no Rio de Janeiro, Tendler deixa um acervo de mais de 70 filmes — não apenas como obra artística, mas como memória coletiva de um país que viveu sob silêncio forçado. Sua vida, marcada pelo exílio, pela paralisia superada e pelo retorno constante ao trabalho, foi ela mesma um documentário sobre a recusa de se render ao esquecimento.
