Why Watch This
Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta peels back the glitter of Brazil’s pop queen to reveal a raw, semi‑autobiographical drama that blends concert footage with intimate backstage moments. Director João Wainer and Pedro Cantelmo let Anitta play a fictionalized version of herself, delivering a performance that feels both theatrical and painfully honest.

The CinePearl Take
Anitta’s dual role as herself and the fictional Larissa is the film’s magnetic core; she captures the vulnerability of a star wrestling with fame and identity. The directors balance kinetic concert sequences with languid, almost documentary‑style interludes, though the pacing occasionally drags in the middle act. Thematically, the movie explores the cost of celebrity in a hyper‑connected Brazil, making the narrative surprisingly resonant beyond the music‑industry setting.
