Season 1 Episode 4: População LGBTQIA+ na Ditadura

This episode addresses the issue of violence by the regime against the homosexual and transsexual population, which we now know by the acronym LGBTQIA+. Dissident bodies and sexualities were targeted by the dictatorial repressive apparatus, which sought to build a society along the lines of "morals and good customs". Concerns about the "apology for homosexuality," often associated with international communism, served to blur the boundaries between morality and politics, justifying several censorships and dismissals. Violence against gays, lesbians, and trans people was also constant, carried out through police raids, arrests, and torture. The film questions the ideas of sexual freedom and desire as something dissociated from power relations through documents and testimonies from the period. The episode is narrated by Hércules Quintanilha, a social scientist graduated from UFF, who was detained by security forces in Rio de Janeiro during the dictatorship.
