The Coup d'État Factory is a powerful documentary that uncovers Brazil’s long history of coup d'états, which wouldn't be possible without the active support of the country’s major media outlets, particularly TV Globo. Directed by two London-based Brazilian journalists, the film explores the tactics these organizations have used to shape public opinion, legitimize authoritarianism, and undermine democracy.

Through exclusive footage and interviews with key figures such as former President Dilma Rousseff, Pulitzer Prize winner Glenn Greenwald, and Nobel laureate Adolfo Perez Esquivel, the film captures the collapse of Brazilian democracy following the 2016 parliamentary coup and Lula's subsequent imprisonment.

By using Brazil as a case study, the documentary emphasizes the urgent need for media regulation worldwide, demonstrating the vital role of balanced journalism in preserving democracy.

“As Brazil turns a tragic page of its history (with Lula's inauguration on January 1st, and Bolsonaro relegated to the bin of history), watch the film that sheds light on what actually happened.” - John Bleasdale, DMovies

“British documentary maker returns to the subject 25 years later: Globo, ‘The Coup d'État Factory’.” - Viomundo
