Marielle and Monica

The LGBT activists resisting Bolsonaro's Brazil. Marielle Franco, a Brazilian LGBT and human rights activist, was killed in March 2018. Her widow, Monica Benicio, continued her fight for better treatment of the poor, the LGBT community and black Brazilians. The case of her murder has still not been solved and, as the police investigation drifts, Monica is a plunged into a new crisis: the probable election of Jair Bolsonaro. The film documents Monica's involvement in the campaign opposing Bolsonaro, shoots of hope in the election of some local politicians from other parties, and the aftermath of the election which suggests a difficult future for LGBT rights and politicians who oppose the government, with little hope for Marielle's murder case being adequately solved.

Really loved the plot and action. The characters were really engaging too.

Acting and directing were very good.

I just finished the movie today and I must say that this is by far one of the most artistic and beautiful movies I have seen in years!

I admit it, I watched it because of Marielle Franco... and I would again. I enjoyed it.

This movie is really good! I loved it. I loved Monica Benicio in this movie.

Very highly recommended to add to your movie collection.

I like Documentary films and this one is pretty good.

Loved this movie. I was not sure at first, but it turned out to be awesome!
