Documentarian Jason Kohn aims his lens at Brazil, widely considered one of the world's most corrupt and violent nations, to capture the ways in which people make a living -- and try to stay alive. Subjects include a businessman who invests in bulletproofing his cars; a politician who runs a suspiciously lucrative frog farm; and a plastic surgeon who specializes in the reconstruction of mutilated ears. In 2007, this film won the Documentary Grand Jury Prize at Sundance.
