Fico Te Devendo uma Carta Sobre o Brasil
Carol Benjamin
Carol Benjamin, César Benjamin
César Benjamin was arrested in August 1971 during student protests against the Brazilian military dictatorship. Although he was a juvenile, he was tried as an adult and sentenced to 13 years in prison. Thanks to the ardent campaigning of his mother Iramaya, working closely together with the Swedish branch of Amnesty International, he was released five years later.

Torre das Donzelas
Susanna Lira
Dilma Rousseff, Guida Amaral
Documents former Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff's visit to the the women's alley of Tiradentes Jail in the city of São Paulo, also known as "Torre das Donzelas" ("Damsels' Tower"). Alongside other women, Dilma was kept as prisoner in there during the 1970s, when Brazil was under a reign of terror during its military dictatorship years. They all meet again 45 years later to break the silence and the fear of speaking out the horrors they lived under a ruthless dictatorship.

Encantado: Le Brésil Désenchanté
Filipe Galvon
Dilma Rousseff, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva
Considered for a few years the “country of the future”, Brazil has seen since 2013 a deep disenchantment between the middle and popular classes that culminated with the rise of Jair Bolsonaro to the Presidency in 2018. Enchanted portrays this recent Brazilian history from a homonymous neighborhood of the Rio suburb transfigured by the 2016 Olympics. From Rio to Paris, a political and poetic testimony of Brazil through the eyes of the first generation of the popular class to study abroad.

O Processo
Maria Augusta Ramos
Dilma Rousseff, Gleisi Hoffmann
The impeachment and removal from office of Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff in 2016 was triggered by a corruption scandal involving, among others, her then vice-president Michel Temer. Director Maria Augusta Ramos follows the trial against Rousseff from the point of view of her defence team. This is a courtroom drama that unfolds slowly: the appearances of the various parties gradually turn the proceedings into something akin to theatre. Inside the courtroom, grand emotions are played to full effect whilst, on the other side of the doors, lobbyists and supporters pace the corridors. Meanwhile, outside, in front of Brasília’s modernist government buildings, demonstrators are chanting like a Greek chorus. Only the main character, Rousseff herself, remains professional and aloof.
The Trial
The Edge of Democracy
Petra Costa
Dilma Rousseff, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva
A cautionary tale for these times of democracy in crisis—the personal and political fuse to explore one of the most dramatic periods in Brazilian history. With unprecedented access to Presidents Dilma Rousseff and Lula da Silva, we witness their rise and fall and the tragically polarized nation that remains.
The Edge of Democracy
Alvorada
Lô Politi, Anna Muylaert
Dilma Rousseff, Lindbergh Farias
The film narrates, from an intimate point of view, the daily life of President Dilma Rousseff in her official residence, the Palácio do Alvorada, while awaiting the verdict of the impeachment process. Portraying the hallways of the palace, designed by Oscar Niemeyer, we see the coming and going of political meetings, the daily routine of the kitchen, the exchange of guards, whispers and phone calls. We feel the growing tension of officials, advisers and former ministers.

Lula Lá: De Fora Pra Dentro
Mariana Vitarelli Alessi
Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, Dilma Rousseff
The filmmaker has shot for 16 years Lula da Silva's trajectory on politics which took him to the Presidency of Brazil. Through unique indie filmmaking, we observe the path that takes him to get elected, reelected, impeachment of his successor and colleague Dilma Rousseff, and Lula's incarceration process that paved the way to Jair Bolsonaro's presidential triumph in 2018.
