Episode Two

Not so long ago Brazil seemed set to become one of the most successful countries of the twenty first century, but widespread corruption, mass protests, a recession and violent crime have led to a series of upheavals which have seen governments thrown out and political leaders jailed. This three part documentary series explores the crisis years of 2013-2018 in Brazil. Episode two examines how an extraordinary corruption investigation shook Brazil's business and political elite, and how President Dilma was impeached in an act her supporters still describe as a "coup".
