Marília Mendonça: All the Feels

Through unreleased compositions and home recordings, we follow Marília Mendonça as she pursues her dream of becoming a singer. Despite financial hardship and family tensions, songwriting gives her a way to express her feelings and break into a sertanejo industry that still underestimates women. But will this be enough to make her a star?

At 19, Marília Mendonça leans into songs of heartbreak and betrayal, influenced by strong Northeastern sounds for a live set recorded without an audience. Following an unexpected breakthrough performance and amid a packed touring schedule, she records her next album before a crowd of 45,000 people and becomes one of Brazil's biggest artists. But her grueling touring pace feels unsustainable.

Marília Mendonça's meteoric rise comes at a cost as her relentless touring schedule takes a toll on her. After falling ill and releasing an underperforming album, she reinvents herself with the ambitious Todos os Cantos project, whose shows draw more than a million people across Brazil. However, an unexpected pregnancy could change the course of her career.

The birth of Léo marks a new chapter for Marília Mendonça. As the pandemic puts her shows on hold, she breaks internet records and launches the ambitious new project As Patroas with Maiara and Maraisa. But success and a relentless schedule of performances across the country come at a cost. When a tragic accident cuts her life short, she leaves behind an extraordinary legacy in Brazilian music.
