    Profiles the Workers Party (PT) in Brazil, the largest left-wing political party in the world today, and the most important political opposition to emerge in Brazil since the formal return to democratic rule in 1985. Comprised of union activists, environmentalists, peasants, Afro-Brazilian groups, women's organizations, and street children, the PT has been instrumental in the struggle for human rights and political reforms against corruption. Filmed during the 1994 elections, the video features interviews with Lula, PT President, Benedita da Silva, Brazil's first black female senator, Paulo Freire, revolutionary educator and philosopher, Augusto Boal, creator of the Theatre of the Oppressed, and many other PT members and congressional representatives.
