DENYING BRAZIL
Saturday, May 31, 2014 @ 4PM
A documentary film about the taboos, stereotypes, and struggles of Black actors in Brazilian television "soaps." Based on his own memories and on a sturdy body of research evidence, the director analyzes race relations in Brazilian soap operas, calling attention to their likely influence on Black people's identity-forming processes. (Brazil, 2000, 92min, Joel Zito Araujo, dir.)
"As a sociological dissection on how popular entertainment can shape racial prejudice and help to build racial justice, 'Denying Brazil' is a strong and significant work of intelligence." Phil Hall, Filmthreat
