Pátria Educadora

I've learned more about education as a whole than education in Brazil. That doesn't mean it doesn't explain what has happened with education in Brazil, but the documentary is much more than that. As it's the norm with Brasil Paralelo documentaries, they don't give you a brief summary or a superficial critique of the situation. Still, they expound it as deep as they can within four hours of episodes.

The documentary shows how education is getting far and far from its ideal, going from making a man able to understand his own life and deep mysteries of life to making a man an instrument for a political plan or ideology.
