Sinopsys
Bia, a
journalist from Rio de Janeiro, arrives at Brasilia, the Brazilian
capital, to assume, during electoral campaign, the branch
of the greatest TV of the country, the TNA..
Half the professionals in the TV branch had gone away to work
for very high wages in different campaigns all over the country.
This professionals will appear during the film in interviews
made in edit rooms . They justify their work using the most
various speeches - since the economical crisis to the lack
of political perspective in this end of the century. Through
this interviews, the film shows the conflicts lived by this
characters.
The
center of the history is the relation between the TNA
and the campaign in Brasilia. The ex-director of TNA
in Brasilia had gone to head the campaign of a young candidate
to Governor of the state, supported by conservative politicians.
This candidate uses a speech that appeals to the populism,
but with modern words. The opposition support a black candidate
and in the coordination of this campaign is a very respected
deputy from the left, Chico Silva, an old love of Bia. In
the redaction, she meets also a young and efficient journalist,
Alex, worried above all with his career in the TV. They form
then a love triangle, and personal problems will moisture
with ethical and political questions. The power of the media
and the roll of the journalist in today’s world will put them
in check.
All
the characters will face ambiguous situations, in ethical
point of view. It doesn’t exist more black and white reality.
Bia see her work manipulated by the direction of the TV and
the campaign in Brasilia grows in a crescendo of appeals
and personal questions. The reaction to all this manipulations
and circumstances that involved illegal procedures is the
history of this film, that little by little wins the tone
of a thriller.
