A documentary about young Brazilians serving in the paratrooper brigade in Rio de Janeiro.

The documentary portrays five people trying to recover from alcoholism or substance abuse. The different narratives present different aspects of addiction: there is an artist who stopped drinking without the help of Alcoholics Anonymous; a sober man for 23 years who helps anyone trying to overcome drug addiction; a woman who has been hospitalized; a retiree who has yet to overcome his addiction; and a recovered man who lives on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro.

Documentary about three people living in the North part of Rio de Janeiro, in poor neighborhoods: their lives, dreams and intimacy. They don’t know each other, but have one thing in common: they’re rappers, and dream of becoming professional musicians.

Taking as a starting point the 200th anniversary of the arrival of the Portuguese Royal Family in Brazil, the documentary “Carnaval para D. João VI” aims to address questions about the transformations that have occurred in the relationship between Brazilians and Portuguese since then. The film goes back to the disembarkation of the court while envisioning a globalized future where historical stereotypes are overcome and reinvented.
