The Brazilian political documentary "The Edge of Democracy" tells the whole process of political events in Brazil from dictatorship to democracy, and then into a democratic crisis. In the past, I only knew about Brazilian football and did not understand the history of Brazil's political state. This documentary will make people aware of it to some extent. Someone who is not a celebrity once said that no matter what era, politics is always confusing, people can't figure out the truth, and officialdom is always dirty, dark and ugly. The documentary "The Edge of Democracy" directed by Petra Costa tries to explore what is true democracy through the process of democratization in Brazil, but the director, like the audience, the world is running towards democracy, some are called democracy, some Infinitely close to the fringe of democracy, but it is always difficult to find the true answer to what democracy is. However, the analogy of a politician in the film is quite interesting: "A good chef does not just cook according to his own taste. A good chef will cater to the tastes of the diners." This topic is too sensitive to talk about. Regardless.

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!
