The Seventh Republic

•

______

Dialoguing with the current world political scenario — in which the continued growth of the far right in the ideological spectrum of countless countries has been curtailing the rights and freedoms of individuals and promoting an imminent setback in the struggle for human rights worldwide —, "Seventh Republic" proposes to the spectator a historical displacement related to the Brazilian context, in which the search to defend the interests of a privileged minority results in the deep degradation of the rights and the environment in which the common citizen lives.

Dialogando com o atual cenário político mundial — no qual, o contínuo crescimento da extrema-direita no espectro ideológico de inúmeros países vem cerceando os direitos e a liberdade dos indivíduos, e promovendo um iminente retrocesso na luta pelos direitos humanos em todo mundo —, Sétima República propõe ao espectador um deslocamento histórico relacionado ao contexto brasileiro, em que a busca por defender os interesses de uma minoria privilegiada resulta na profunda degradação dos direitos e do meio em que vive o cidadão comum.

In order to transmit our message, we decided to work with some characters during the video to guide the spectator. They have a strong symbolic representation based in Brazil's history.

The Hummingbird was taken from Brazil's money and represents the citizens. The Hands are representing the interest of the politicians and was provided by the motion designer Matias Furno. The bust represents the Brazilian democracy and collapses our country has been passing by currently.
