A Última Abolição (2018)
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.
