  • Fronteira da Grandeza

    Fronteira da Grandeza (2019)
    Documentary by Combat Films & Research Producer | Cinematographer Hundreds of years ago the Portuguese expanded their territorial claims, pushing into the South American jungles. Today, the opening of the Brazilian border has resulted in a cultural melting pot that enriches the lives of millions of people. But relatively easy access has led to a steady stream of illegal international trafficking that continues to shake the foundations of Brazilian society and jeopardize Brazil's role in protecting the Amazon and its indigenous peoples. A Fronteira provides a glimpse of the challenges facing the Brazilian border with implications for the future of Brazil itself through the eyes of those on the front lines of this struggle.
