Brazil is a country of many people who speak their minds and blindly follow the media, which have aimed at destroying Dilma Rousseff and the Worker's Party -- and this movie clearly shows step 1 of such decline and fall. Dilma predicts the type of government that Brazil was about to have, as she describes "conservative, right wing, neoliberal" and today, Brazil has just elected Jair Bolsonaro as its current president. THIS MOVIE WAS LITERALLY RELEASED BEFORE ELECTIONS. This documentary outlines each and every step taken upon her impeachment, and how it was unlawfully done. Basically, the day democracy in Brazil begun to die.
The sad part: throughout the voting process against her, the newly elected president, Bolsonaro, preached a little acclamation towards Dilma's torturer, (during military dictatorship) and Brazilians STILL VOTED ON HIM. Like, how was this just not obvious enough, Brazil??
Brazil is a country that, despite its beauty, needs to critically think about what they watch. The future of this country is dark now under Bolsonaro's government. This movie will be a hallmark in History.

Plot summary
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 ugly truth of Brazilian politics
Left reflections
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.
