Workers filmed their own exploitation for 10 years — and it's devastating.
Composed of videos published on YouTube by Petrobras contractors, the film explores an important chapter in the country through fragments of working life inside and outside the factory. With their own hands, the working class registers - over a decade (2008-2018) - the joys and disappointments of their journey.
