Essay, documentary, 31'42''
What can cinema do for Brazil? Film students seek the purpose of producing documentaries, questioning the power of images in the construction of a national imaginary, the dialectic between representation and reality, and the ethics behind images widely disseminated through the media. The object of this research is the representation of street demonstrations in the country.
