Michelle Obama ganha documentário na Netflix

Boa-nova para os admiradores de Michelle Obama! A lendária ex-primeira dama dos Estados Unidos acaba de divulgar em suas redes sociais o lançamento de um documentário na Netflix.

O filme mostrará os bastidores do tour de lançamento de seu livro, o best-seller Becoming, e estará disponível na plataforma de streaming no dia 6 de maio.

Dirigido por Nadia Hallgren, o longa-metragem promete ser um mergulho nas experiências mais marcantes da autora durante suas sessões de autógrafo.

“Naqueles meses que passei viajando – conhecendo e me conectando com pessoas de cidades em todo o mundo – levei para casa a ideia de que o que compartilhamos em comum é profundo e real e não pode ser mexido. Em grupos grandes e pequenos, jovens e velhos, únicos e unidos, nos reunimos e compartilhamos histórias, preenchendo esses espaços com nossas alegrias, preocupações e sonhos. Processamos o passado e imaginamos um futuro melhor”, escreveu Michelle em seu perfil no Instagram.

“Valorizo ​​as memórias e esse senso de conexão agora mais do que nunca, enquanto lutamos juntos para enfrentar essa pandemia, cuidamos de nossos entes queridos e lidamos com a perda, a confusão e a incerteza. […] Mesmo em tempos difíceis, nossas histórias ajudam a consolidar nossos valores e fortalecer nossas conexões. Compartilhá-las nos mostra o caminho a seguir”, continuou.

O post da esposa de Barack Obama rendeu mais de 380 mil curtidas, além de comentários carinhosos como “ansiosa”, “sentimos saudades de você” e “Michelle para presidente”.

I’m excited to let you know that on May 6, @Netflix will release BECOMING, a documentary film directed by Nadia Hallgren that looks at my life and the experiences I had while touring following the release of my memoir. Those months I spent traveling—meeting and connecting with people in cities across the globe—drove home the idea that what we share in common is deep and real and can’t be messed with. In groups large and small, young and old, unique and united, we came together and shared stories, filling those spaces with our joys, worries, and dreams. We processed the past and imagined a better future. In talking about the idea of ‘becoming,’ many of us dared to say our hopes out loud. I treasure the memories and that sense of connection now more than ever, as we struggle together to weather this pandemic, as we care for our loved ones, and cope with loss, confusion, and uncertainty. It’s hard these days to feel grounded or hopeful, but I hope that like me, you’ll find joy and a bit of respite in what Nadia has made. Because she’s a rare talent, someone whose intelligence and compassion for others comes through in every frame she shoots. Most importantly, she understands the meaning of community, the power of community, and her work is magically able to depict it. As many of you know, I’m a hugger. My whole life, I’ve seen it as the most natural and equalizing gesture one human can make toward another—the easiest way of saying, “I’m here for you.” And this is one of the toughest parts of our new reality: Things that once felt simple—going to see a friend, sitting with someone who is hurting, embracing someone new—are now not simple at all. But I’m here for you. And I know you are here for one another. Even as we can no longer safely gather we need to stay open and able to put ourselves in other people’s shoes. Empathy is our lifeline here. Let’s use it to redirect our attention toward what matters most, and find ways to better remake the world in the image of our hopes. Even in hard times, our stories help cement our values and strengthen our connections. Sharing them shows us the way forward. I love and miss you all. #IAmBecoming
