Sexo, Pregações e Política

Country: Brazil, Language: Portuguese, 70 mins

  • Director: Aude Chevalier-Beaumel; Michael Gimenez

CGiii Comment

Brazil builds and sells an image of its society where sexuality is liberated and sexual orientation respected. However, this same Brazil reveals itself as a conservative country, where women die as a result of the prohibition on abortion and where the highest amount of murders of homosexuals and transsexuals occurs in the world. From the victims and the activists to the political sphere, this film provides a critical look into the paradox of Brazilian sexual freedom and the rise of conservatism and religion such as radical evangelicalism that bodes a dark future for women's and LGBT rights in the country.
