Showcasing over 4 shows from 2000 up until 2023, SESC TV stands as a beacon of television excellence.
Directed by Isa Grinspum Ferraz, the series O Povo Brasileiro proposes a deep dive into the history of Brazil to talk about historical, social and cultural formations that constitute the identities of the Brazilian people. The production approaches from aspects of the native peoples to the formation of Brazil as a national unit, in a recreation of the literary narrative of the homonymous work written by the anthropologist Darcy Ribeiro.
Documentary series in five episodes about the Brazilian thinker who is a world reference in education. Cristiano Burlan investigates the formation of Paulo Freire and his influences for the conception of Pedagogy of the Oppressed from testimonies of his family and professionals who knew him or work in the institutions where he put his concepts into practice.
