June 2014 The Month That Shook the Brazil 2014

PLOT:
Junho is a filmed version of the same phenomenon. The Brazilian newspaper, Folha de São Paulo, has rushed to get a movie out with a nebulous tie to the World Cup in the hope to capitalize on the attention now focused on that event as well as on the counter-demonstrations that are expected to be held throughout Brazil over the next month.
The documentary covers the protests that began in São Paulo last June and spread across the country in the course of the month. What started as a rally against an increase in public transportation fares evolved into a larger political movement that reflected widespread discontent with the status quo. In many ways, the turmoil resembled the Occupy Wall Street movement that ignited in New York in September 2011, but that comparison, and most other insights into the significance of what occurred, has to made by the viewer. Unlike Another World, the imperfect but plucky documentary that examined the Occupy movement, Junho lacks any narrative structure other than the calendar. A date in June flashes up, news footage runs, an after-interview with a participant is shown, a talking head explains – and then it’s on to the next day.
