Beyond Citizen Kane

Beyond Citizen Kane is a powerful and thought-provoking documentary that delves into the world of media manipulation and political corruption in Brazil. The film focuses on the influential role of the Rede Globo media group and its founder, Roberto Marinho, who is accused of using his media empire to influence public opinion and shape political outcomes. Through a series of insightful interviews with notable politicians, cultural figures, and former employees, the documentary reveals a web of corruption and deceit that threatens the very fabric of Brazilian democracy. The film's title, a reference to Orson Welles' classic Citizen Kane, is fitting, as it highlights the similarities between Marinho's manipulation of the media and the fictional Charles Foster Kane's exploitation of his newspaper empire for personal gain. Beyond Citizen Kane is a must-see for anyone interested in understanding the complex relationship between media, politics, and power in Brazil.
