This is the first time I write this, also to record the process of learning from the movie. As a form of culture, film has a lot of knowledge worthy of our study.

Democracy is a very sensitive word, and there is a lot of knowledge behind it that is worth exploring. A historian once said: The main theme of modern history is democratization. Under this tide, all countries will be affected, but there will also be corners, and there will be repetitions in some time periods. Just like the water in the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, it flows eastward, but there will be undercurrents, whirlpools, and anti-western times. . .

    Bolsonalo’s words and deeds during the COVID-19 pandemic were similar to those of the commander of Sichuan University. At the same time, the Attorney General Moreau directly picked up his son during this period. This popular science documentary provides an excellent reference for the chaos of the current node. It is like bringing the full chaos of the world to Brazil.

    Although it is a documentary with a strong subjective tendency, it is unique. The director did not shy away from his own situation, but instead captured a lot of precious material, reflecting the plight of Latin America and the world today. The film can be used both as a primer on the turbulent Brazilian politics of recent years, or as a passionate personal "essay."

The Edge of Democracy quotes

  • Petra Costa: A Greek writer said that democracy is only working when the rich feel threatened. Otherwise, oligarchy takes over. From father to son, son to grandson, from grandson to great grandson, and so successively.

  • Self - Ex-Presidente: It's no use trying to stop me from travelling around this country, because there are millions of Lulas, Boulos, Manuelas, and Dilma Rousseffs to do it for me. There's no use in trying to stop my ideas. They're already in the air, and you can't imprison them! There's no point in trying to stop my dreams, because when I stop dreaming, I'll be dreaming through your minds and dreams! There's no point in thinking everything's going to stop the day Lula has a heart attack. That's nonsense! Because my heart will be beating through yours, and there are millions of hearts! The powerful can kill one, two, or 100 roses. But they'll never stop the arrival of spring, and our fight is in search of spring!
