      A key documebtary on racism in Brazil and on Brazilian television

      Very important and well made documentary on racial question and a critical history of the presence and absence of black actors/actresses and characters in Brazilian soap operas. Footage is precious, testimonies are important and analysis by filmmaker is serious. It is a key production on the many levels, layers and evolution of racism in Brazil. The examples of each stereotype and of racist narratives are números through half a century.
