The story

The documentary follows the growing influence of the evangelical movement in Brazilian politics, specially during Jair Bolsonaro's tenure as President of Brazil. Costa gains unprecedented access to Bolsonaro's close associate: far-right televangelist Silas Malafaia. Malafaia's undeniable growing influence on Bolsonarism, since the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil, is also a key part of the 2022 presidential elections results (which Bolsonaro was narrowly defeated) and the attempted coup d'état in the following months.
