Favela Olímpica (2017)
Directed by Samuel ChalardDocumentary
Favela Olímpica unfolds in Rio de Janeiro on both sides of the wall separating the new Olympic Stadium and the favéla Vila Autódromo. Nothing prevents the co-existence of these two worlds but some judge them "incompatible" including Rio's mayor. His wish to reclaim these area reserved for Rio's poor since the 1990 sets off a lopsided power struggle as people with little means fight to keep their home. Meanwhile, the Opening Ceremony approaches . . .
