Film Screening and Panel: 20 Centavos
Date: Fri. 27 Nov, 2015 2:00 pm

Location: Jackman Humanities Bldg. Room 100A
Please join us for a screening of Brazilian film "20 Centavos". Panel to follow.

In the summer of 2013, Brazilians took over the streets in a nation wide protest. What started as a protest against an increase in public transport fees in São Paulo, quickly evolved into a popular movement against many things (corruption, the government, and the World Cup were some of the items mentioned). Please join us to watch this documentary that tries to show how the movement quickly evolved into something quite different than the organizers of the first protests had envisioned. The screening will be followed by a discussion moderated by Mariana Mota Prado, Associate Dean for the Graduate Program at the Faculty of Law, and with the participation of Dr. Juan P. Marsiaj and Prof. Hudson Moura.
