Brazil Unfiltered comes back from 1 to 31 October with a special curation of documentary films to contextualise the presidential elections taking place in Brazil this month. Centred around territorial struggles and the frontlines of resistance, the programme starts with a masterpiece from the late Eduardo Coutinho, followed by a sequence of 3 films set in the Amazon and a closure event + screening about climate resilience and ecological farming.

Bonus screening: due to the massive attendance in April 2026, we will screen Ouvidor again.


In Ouvidor, the largest art squat in Latin America, 120 artists from various countries coexist in a vibrant micro-society in São Paulo, where each of the 13 floors functions like a distinct neighborhood dedicated to a different form of artistic expression. As they resist constant eviction threats from a government with fascist tendencies in Brazil, internal tensions are fueled by Red Bull’s sponsorship of their Art Biennial. Trailer
