The director of Oscar-nominated doco The Edge of Democracy dives deep into the current state of Brazilian politics—where democracy threatens to turn into theocracy.

Director Kirsten Johnson follows up her critically-acclaimed doco Cameraperson with an intimate film that stars her dad in the last years of his life. With their family's dark sense of humour, they work together to keep him alive forever with the power of filmmaking.
