Badi Assad makes exciting music in the genres of classical, jazz, and worldbeat. Coming from a musical family (her father Jorge and her brothers Sérgio and Odair Assad are also successful musicians), she studied classical guitar at the Rio de Janeiro University. After winning the city's Young Instrumentalists Contest (1984) and the award for Best Brazilian Guitarist at the Heitor Villa-Lobos Festival (1987), Assad gained wide acclaim as an artist. In 1995, the readers of Guitar Player magazine voted her album "Rhythms" Best Classical Album of the Year, while the Guitar Player editors voted her Best Acoustic Fingerstyle Guitarist.
Assad has established herself as a strong voice in the music scene - from the classical to the pop world. Along the way, she has had to struggle with many pressures, such as the challenging heritage of coming from a family of musicians, the opinions of critics, and the adversities of a male-dominated music world. This documentary portrait by São Paulo filmmaker Edu Felistoque takes us into the world of Assad's creative work, her unique talent, thoughts, and feelings, and gives an insight into her life and journey.
"Badi" was screened at the Festival du Cinéma de Paris and received the "Best Film" award at FestCine Maracanaú (Fortaleza) as well as the "Best Documentary" award at LABAFF (Los Angeles Brazilian Film Festival).
