Executive Order background

Executive Order

In a dystopian Brazil, the government's decree to relocate citizens of African descent to Africa sparks widespread chaos, protests, and the emergence of a clandestine resistance movement that fuels the nation's rebellion.

In a dystopian Rio de Janeiro, a lawyer files a lawsuit against the Brazilian government to compensate descendants of African slaves. In response, the government passes an executive order, forcing all black citizens to be sent to Africa as a supposed form of reparations for slavery. The authorities measure citizens by their skin color, hunt them down, and exile them against their will, while the army and police enforce the law. A lawyer, joined by his uncle and wife, a doctor who has gone missing, joins an underground movement to resist the government's brutal measures and inspire a national uprising.
