Between 2005 and 2014 Amnesty International documented 8,466 cases of registered police killings, with the number of such homicides in the city of Rio de Janeiro representing nearly 16% of all homicides in 2014. This episode is about state violence, state complicity in the execution of their own people. But it is also a film that highlights how young, male, black people are singled out, targeted and quite often shot. This is also a film about guns and the extent to which militarism is becoming the norm as a way of dealing with the poor.

Uruguay - Jose Mujica - The World’s Poorest President

When Uruguay elected Jose Mujica as its President in 2010 at the age of seventy-five, it elected a President like no other. Following his election, he refused to stay in the luxurious Presidential State house instead opting to stay at his wife's farmhouse, off a dirt road outside the capital, Montevideo. Famously he continued to drive a 1987 Volkswagen car. On his election his personal wealth was the value of that car – worth $1,800 at the time.
