The Trial

The impeachment and removal from office of Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff in 2016 was triggered by a corruption scandal involving, among others, her then vice-president Michel Temer. Director Maria Augusta Ramos follows the trial against Rousseff from the point of view of her defence team. This is a courtroom drama that unfolds slowly: the appearances of the various parties gradually turn the proceedings into something akin to theatre. Inside the courtroom, grand emotions are played to full effect whilst, on the other side of the doors, lobbyists and supporters pace the corridors. Meanwhile, outside, in front of Brasília’s modernist government buildings, demonstrators are chanting like a Greek chorus. Only the main character, Rousseff herself, remains professional and aloof.

Not Everything That Ends Has a Final End

The documentary ‘Not Everything That Ends Has a Final End’ is a narrative that shows the winding path that emocore took in the world of rock, where it established itself as a controversial genre with multiple distinctive characteristics. The film features emblematic figures from the Brazilian emocore scene, such as Lucas Silveira (Fresno), Koala (Hateen), and Nenê Altro (Dance of Days), as well as others involved in the subject matter, contributing to a simple and transparent presentation of perspectives on the distortion of the true meaning of Emo, its sonic characteristics, and more. This is an independent, original production, designed for those who have never heard of Emo, for those who know – or think they know – what it was, and above all, a gift for those nostalgic for the scene who experienced it firsthand and still cherish fond memories of this movement that marked a generation.
