🎬 Movie

The camera glides over the geometric lines of a capital conceived as a symbol of progress. The architectural dreams of Oscar Niemeyer and Lúcio Costa are revealed in the cold light of reality. Documentarian Joaquim Pedro de Andrade captures not the harmony of the future, but the social fissures in a concrete utopian project. Between gleaming ministries and workers' settlements yawns a chasm, exposing how an idealistic plan reproduced old vices—inequality and alienation. The film becomes an autopsy not of a city, but of an illusion, where form triumphed over substance, and the human dimension was lost among monumental ensembles.
