As shown in Cannes, a few people involved in this movie (including the main star) were involved with a small political protest during the exhibition of this movie, where they claim a coup has taken course in Brazil.
That only shows why people are so easily brainwashed today, especially when we talk about brazilians that do NOT live in Brazil - because they are totally clueless about what exactly goes on since the Lula/Dilma government.
So it's probably for the best that if you do not sympathize with their silly bias against the true meaning of democracy, that you ignore this movie and anything Sonia Braga related.
Yeah, it's a coup orchestrated by over half of the brazilian population and over 70% of the senate and the chamber of deputies - yet you are trying to tell me to save my **** for myself.
The foreign media you claim they are taking the asinine side of this political joke are the ones fomented by the liberal media and the ones who do not know any better, which clearly works well for your case.
http://www.economist.com/news/leaders/21695391-tarnished-president-should-now-resign-time-go "How she exits the Planalto, the presidential palace, matters greatly. We continue to believe that, in the absence of proof of criminality, Ms Rousseff’s impeachment is unwarranted. The proceeding against her in Congress is based on unproven allegations that she used accounting trickery to hide the true size of the budget deficit in 2015. This looks like a pretext for ousting an unpopular president. The idea, put forward by the head of the impeachment committee, that congressmen deliberating Ms Rousseff’s fate will listen to “the street”, would set a worrying precedent. Representative democracies should not be governed by protests and opinion polls."
And a couple of more links from The Guardian and Der Spiegel (you know, two more "bolivarian trash"). I think it's good for you, cause it seems you're lacking sources of informations other than Veja magazine and Rede Globo TV:
http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/may/12/the-guardian-view-on-dilma-rousseffs-impeachment-the-political-system-should-be-on-trial-not-one-woman "Dilma inherited this unhappy legacy and began to lose control during a period of economic decline, as corruption, thanks to independent police and prosecutors, was becoming a scandal of increasing proportions. Male prejudice against a female leader, and the grudges of a political right never wholly reconciled to the rise of Lula’s and Dilma’s Workers’ party (PT) certainly played their part. The final toxic element in the crisis was the realisation by many politicians that prosecutors could soon catch more and more of them in its net, and that a way to avoid or minimise this possibility would be to distract attention and take control of the political process by pursuing the impeachment of the head of state."
You need to learn how to read. None of those call it coup. Some newspapers criticized the congress, but never called it a coup.
The consensus in the international media is that it's perfectly legal.
It's hilarious that you post an article calling for Dilma to resign, because she has no credibility as a president after helping Lula to escape prison, as evidence.
Tens of millions of people went to streets to demand her impeachment. An impeachment made by an independent and transparent judiciary, conducted by elected officials and with full support of the Brazilian population.
Actually Brazil hasn't exactly a film industry. The only country you could say that have a film industry is the United States, also known as the only country in the world in which the movies are not (generally) state financed. All countries support their filmmakers, including european countries, otherwise we would be only watching american movies (in fact, we are very close to that right now, because they have something similar to a monopoly).
You should really stop parroting what they have been saying the entire time as their only line of defense. It makes you look stupid.
There is no coup, unless, of course, you truly believe the whole country is conspiring against the most corrupt government that ever existed in Brazil. You are talking about things you do not understand, you have absolutely zero knowledge about basic federal laws.
The due process is what is happening. They are being removed according to the law. Everything else they say and you, like them, keep parroting about is just pure conjecture and delusion.
Because I do not need to. If you actually paid attention to what is going on, nobody would need to. Instead, you just rather close your eyes and ears to reality and believe the fairy tale the government tells you on a daily basis.
If I had to explain you everything to counter your "arguments", I would have to start explaining things happening since circa 2003. Of course I know better.
This government is responsible for the biggest corruption scandal in human history. It is being removed by the people who's tired of these thieves and liars.
How can someone still defend it?
This won't end corruption, but it's a first step. One by one the corrupt are going to fall.
Tens of millions of people didn't go to streets demanding her impeachment for "political interests". The people want justice. Or maybe you missed the massive protests all over the country?
What she committed was a crime, and that's the reason she was impeached. By an independent and transparent judiciary and with the support of the population.
You are the losers of history. Her government will go down as the worst Brazil ever had. She sank our economy and plundered our country.
Impeachment alone isn't enough. I hope Lava Jato puts them behind bars.
I have no idea if or who of the dictators got richer. That's not related to what I mentioned above. Now if that is what you consider as which was the worst government, we simply have very different moral values.
If you bothered replying with facts instead of parroting what every one of them has been doing right now, you wouldn't be looking so stupid.
Lula/Dilma ran the country into the *beep* ground. Now they are all being prosecuted for their actions. If you truly believe the whole country is conspiring against a bunch of well known thieves, you have other issues to worry about, for instance, the advanced state of schizophrenia you have.
Either way, believe it or not, you and the rest of them "believers" will have to deal with it. Meanwhile, enjoy your $1.5 trillion dollars debt left by those scavengers.
Oh yeah, because your sheer ignorance and blatant disregard of every other media outlet and their mothers pointing out to all the mischievous management of PT party totally says otherwise.
When someone can't argue against something, they attack the person instead of attacking the ideas. You're just showing you're inability to think over and over and over. Post by post. You can't argue, so you call me "moron" or "stupid" to try to feel smart. To compensate your lack of points. And this post of yours is the most telling of them all: you need the media to teach you how to "think".
No, nothing about that, just pointing out the idiocy of your replies, because you have absolutely zero ideas posted. You are just posting a mish mash of senseless negative replies. Like I said, this conversation is most likely going to make others feel ignorant.
You and people like you really underestimate the intelligence of others. Just because you can't think for yourself and follow whatever the rightwing media tells you, doesn't mean everyone else has to. Keep your pathetic boycotts to yourself or at least keep them where they are relevant, in Brazilian politics, not its movies.

Sometimes I wonder how some can survive in the world. Maybe that's why they need money from the government.
Are you saying that all the bribe scandals of the past years, the hidden properties of Lula, audio recordings of Lula threathening judges or helping criminals, the economy collapsing due to mismanagement and Dilma trying to hide it, are just an invention from the right wing media?
