Mars One is a 2022 Brazilian family drama film written and directed by Gabriel Martins. It tells the story of Deivinho, a Black Brazilian youth who dreams of becoming an astrophysicist and joining a mission to the planet Mars. Deivinho's parents and sister are hard-working and support each other but live precariously on the outskirts of Belo Horizonte. The film dramatizes the social upheaval amongst Brazil's poor that greeted the election of populist Jair Bolsonaro.

Production

Afro-Brazilian director, screenwriter, and cinematographer Gabriel Martins is the creative force behind the film. Martins is a graduate of Centro Universitário UNA and launched Filmes de Plástico in 2009 with André Novais Oliveira and Maurílio Martins, who are credited as producers on Mars One. The film was shot just after the 2018 Brazilian general election.

Magnolia Pictures purchased the rights to the film just prior to its debut at the Sundance Film Festival in January, 2022. The distributor touted an "uplifting and tender film about a family’s hopes and dreams, set against a Brazil in constant turmoil.” Magnolia guided the film through a successful film festival run before negotiating the sale of the rights to Ava DuVernay’s distribution banner ARRAY Releasing in late 2022.
