The true story of Assis Chateaubriand, the first magnate of communications in Brazil. Due to his influence during the late 1930s up to the early 1960s, he has come to be called 'the Brazilian Citizen Kane'.

VIBE

A whirlwind of ambition and media manipulation. This film feels like a grand, chaotic rise and fall, capturing the intoxicating power and ultimate hubris of a true media titan. Expect sharp dialogue and a dizzying pace.
