Sex, Sermons and Politics (2016)

Following the trail of Jandira, a young woman who lost her life after undergoing an illegal abortion, this film provides a critical look into the paradox of Brazilian sexuality and the rise of conservatism and religion, such as radical evangelism, which penetrates the government itself and bodes a dark future for women's and LGBT rights in the country.
