Runtime
84 min

Synopsis

Documentary about the epidemic of fires in favelas in the city of Sao Paulo and its relationship with real estate speculation. Includes testimonies of former mayor Fernando Haddad, journalist Leonardo Sakamoto, and urban planners such as Nabil Bonduki, Ermínia Maricato and Ana Paula Bruno. In addition to these, there are also compelling testimonies from victims of the fires, as well as from other authorities, such as city councillors who composed the controversial Parliamentary Inquiry Commission investigating the fires in 2012 and the Civil Defence.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
