Bolsonaro, the Far Side of Brazil

He is known as the "Trump of the tropics", the "Cavalo", the uncontrollable horseman, the disruptive populist, or even "The Myth". Known for his anti-communist rhetoric, his provocative words on Amazonia, dictatorship, women, homosexuality, firearms, and now for his seemingly unreadable governance. Yet, he is a political figure far more complex than the grotesque portrait painted of him. Supported by the country's various conservative forces, he had no doubts about the outcome of the 2022 election: "I will leave the presidential palace in 2027!" Portrait of a man that no one expected but who did not come to power by chance. A man whose journey tells the story of an entirely different Brazil.
