A documentary by Filipe Galvon – 55 min

Encantado is a political and poetic portrait of recent Brazil, as seen by the first working-class population studying abroad.

Is the country that enchanted the world living a disenchantment? If Brazil was once called the country of the future, it is nowadays an example of a democracy in ruins, this country’s situation being the symptom of a global process of democratic disenchantment.

Then what does Brazil’s disenchantment say about France and the world? The Lula-Dilma generation bears the burden of discovering the avenues for an answer, and of building its destiny on the ruins of an ending Brazil.
