Marighella
A charismatic revolutionary abandons his family to ignite an armed uprising against Brazil’s brutal 1960s military dictatorship, risking capture and death as he battles a ruthless regime determined to crush dissent.
“Brazil’s number one enemy”
Synopsis
Carlos Marighella was an Afro-Brazilian poet and politician who became a prominent revolutionary figure in Brazil. Motivated by the erosion of civil and human rights after the CIA-backed military coup of 1964 and the subsequent brutal, racist right-wing dictatorship, he left his wife and son to take up arms against the regime. He became a well-known adversary of the government, operating in the shadows as a key figure in the resistance.

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.
