A Última Abolição

2018 Movie Documentary

A detailed retrospective of an emblematic moment in Brazilian history, the abolition of slavery, presented from another perspective. Contrary to what was preached by textbooks and other aspects of official history for a long time, it was not merely the signature of Princess Elizabeth in the Golden Law on May 13, 1888, that freed the slaves, and neither was such a gift a gift or a step in the direction of mythological racial democracy.

Among the many victims of the military dictatorship that raged in Brazil from 1964 to 1985, a small group of guerilla fighters – Chael, Roberto, Reinaldo and Dora – got arrested, tortured, some of them killed or forced into exile. Before and after their arrest, during their torture sessions, the police photographed them. Together with the official reports, these photos are the material Anita Leandro worked on from the inside to bring these four people’s fate out of oblivion.
