A Fantástica Fábrica de Golpes

One of the most important documentaries that has bren produced to highlight a coup against a fragile Brazilian democracy.

It is impossible to deny history and the facts. Essential watch this courageous documentary to understand the democracy in Brazil and beyound.

The documentary reveals how the media and right-wing party deposed the first woman elected in Brazil, Dilma Rouseff (Labours party) during her second presidential term.

The coup d'état took place six years ago, but it is clearly how the coup still reflects in all sections on Brazilian society today.

Again: Powerful. Epic documentary. Must watch it.

Really enjoyed watching this movie. Very important! And could not come at greater poignant time. I was unaware of Brazils political structures and fundamental corruption caused by the right wing, almost fascist ideology of Bolsanaro. As I write this, even now similar scenarios of Trump throwing his toys out of the pram when America finally voted against him are line to Bolsanario.. One could say Trump is a saint in comparison.. Well, at least Lula is back! Hope for the Brazilian population that peace can be restored, away from a government injecting ideas of violence and hatred toward it's own people.

The documentary The Coup d'Etat Factory explains the recent political history in Brazil, comparing it with its violent and turbulent XX century events.

More than a collection of testimonials, directors Victor Fraga and Valnei Nunes sew a thread of surreal facts in Brazilian current affairs into a patchwork. It's difficult to explain the unexplainable. But this documentary succeeds in chasing the truth -- the playful truth that likes to hide itself.

Brazil's complexities and plurality do not show off only in music, arts and sports, but they reveal themselves in daily life. Hence it is quite complicated to understand how Dilma was impeached, why Lula was imprisioned and why the extreme right-wing "suddenly" became so powerful.

The power of TV Globo is as strong as Fox News in the United States, with the difference that there is no other TV channel as broadly watched as TV Globo. 29% of Brazilians are functional illiterate. The majority of the population watch TV Globo newshows without comparing it without any other medium. But most recently, Brazilians have been infuenced by fake news to a degree that it is difficult to verify what is really true.

If The Capture (BBC show) is still fictional, and deepfakes of politicians were not yet detected in British politics, in the Coup d'Etat Factory the Fake is alive. It is devouring Brazilian people.

A copy of The Coup d'Etat Factory should be sent to cinemateques all over the world. It is crucial that Brazilian history ceases to be erased.

The effects of such a dominant.

A must-see movie, that reveals how devilishly a government was overthrown in Brazil.

An unmissable film, which reveals how diabolically the government was overthrown in Brazil. With a clear, direct dialogue that is alarming because it unmasks important institutions and public figures. Also, gains strength with a bias of standing applause!

With a realistic approach and with a fundamental guideline for the understanding of history, political events and their impacts and consequences on the lives of many people. A film that marks a story of corruption and revels relentlessly never to happen again: as a cry for help against brainwashing!

This documentary shows how media manipulates the public opinion through what we now call fake new. Victor Braga wrote an extraordinary didactic script. It's one of those documentaries that succeed to point it out ugly sides of power and society with elegance.

He himself is the narrador. His narrative is clean, sharp, ironic, delightful. His regional accent adds an extra charm as he comes from the most lucid region of Brazil, NE. NE didn't fall into any fake new whatsoever about Lula for instance and gave the most votes against fascism at our President election 2022.

Fundamental movie to understand why Brazil has such a fragile democracy.
