“Exploitation is the law, the strike is the crime.” In the context of the strong strike of the working class and the police repression that followed in Brazil in the 1920s, the short film revives the figure of the union leader Domingos Passos and does so, moreover, based on recreations given that the The Bolsonaro government limited, as a policy, access and use of the nation’s film archive.
