O Processo

The documentary "O Processo" (2018) offers a behind-the-scenes look at the 2016 impeachment trial of Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff, following the defence team's perspective. The film portrays the proceedings as a slow-burning drama, with grand emotions played out in the courtroom and outside, where lobbyists and supporters pace the corridors and demonstrators chant in front of Brasília's government buildings. Only the main character, Rousseff herself, remains professional and aloof, as the trial unfolds.
