O Processo

The truth ignored by the Brazilian politics in 2016 will be remembered by future generations. And this movie documents it with competence.

This doc shows simply the facts, how the coup d'Etat took place.

From the magnificent representation of politics-circus as a football match, going through the most human facets of each of the sides, to the sensible internal reading of the party that defends the struggles of the movements of race, gender and class it is truly captivating how the struggle for power and the daily battle of those who still believe a change in hell is possible.

The Process is a 2018 Brazilian documentary directed by Maria Ramos, which shows the behind-the-scenes of the impeachment process of Dilma Rousseff, in 2016.
