Channel 4's multi-award-winning foreign affairs strand returns for a new series with a film from Brazil exploring the impact of the country's new President, Jair Bolsonaro, on the LGBT community. Reporter Seyi Rhodes and director Kate Hardie-Buckley travel to Sao Paulo - which holds the world record for the largest gay pride parade ever - as its inhabitants prepare for Carnival. Brazil has an image as an open and permissive melting pot, but they reveal that it's actually one of the most dangerous places in the world to be LGBT, with estimates that someone from the community is killed every 16 hours in the country.
