Dystopia follows what happens when a democracy falls from the edge. It investigates how an extremely religious and increasingly fundamentalist nation copes with leadership that is essentially anti-State during the Coronavirus pandemic. As we follow Igor, an evangelical pastor in a favela, and a range of other characters including doctors, nurses, and other religious leaders, we discover a country divided by a Holy War - with conflicting visions of faith, science, power and solidarity.
