Not My Fault: Brazil

2022 · 1 season

A sobering, socially charged drama that contrasts festive energy with the grim reality of violence against women.

Overview: During Brazil’s Carnaval, the country escapes the mundane in exuberant fashion: sexual freedom, elation, and ostentatious displays of art. But even the most joyous of celebrations cannot erase the cancer of femicide plaguing this country. Set to the backdrop of Carnaval, this series unlayers ten stories based on real events that reveal the cultural contradictions present in this “festive” country.
How it feels: Dark, tense, earnest and melancholic. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Violence, gender, crime, justice
Content: Strong violence. Mild gore, sexual content and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
