Luiz Felipe Pondé

"People on the street will not end in anything." How many times have you heard this phrase? Even so, at each protest, you took to the streets, invited people, mobilized. Why? What was the strange stubbornness that made you strive without the slightest idea if it would work? This is the story we want to tell. Not only MBL's history, but yours. You saw, lived and won. And now you can remember how it all started…

A woman finds herself facing a situation where a strong desire would cause her to change her entire life. This and Ana Thereza's other personal questions serve as a starting point for addressing the main object of this documentary: desire. Not only in the denotative sense of the word, but, above all, by its forms and possibilities of growth, ascension and, moreover, in what way is it capable of building itself from idealization and subjectivity.

Over the 2010s decade, even in different contexts and different democracies, the lack of satisfaction of society with politics became an unifying trait that caused riots in Brazil, the United States, France, Egypt and Ukraine. All of those governments fell, whether by force or by elections, but corruption keeps happening in the new governments. "The Paradox of Democracy" analyzes this problem with the help of intellectuals who have been studying 21st-century political science.

In three acts, the documentary talks about internet's "cancel culture" from the point of view of Brazilian internet celebrities, politicians and comedians.
