Alvorada

Inside the [official presidential house] Palácio da Alvorada, the daily life of President Dilma Rousseff, the first and only woman to govern Brazil, during the dramatic unfolding of the coup that brought her out of power. Filmed between July and September 2016, the documentary witnesses the tension and perplexity that escalated in the president's circle, in meetings, endless phone calls and whispers heard from the kitchen to the guard of Oscar Niemeyer's palace. At the same time, she reveals a surprising personality in informal conversations in which Dilma talks about politics, history, literature - and herself. (Cinéma du Parc)
