Join us for a screening of the 2024 documentary Apocalypse in the Tropics, in conjunction with the 2026 Oregon Contemporary Artists’ Biennial: The Price of the Ticket. The screening will be followed by a discussion led by Marcelo Fontana, curator of the current Collins Gallery exhibit, Invite Hope, that is one of the many programs and installations for the Biennial.
"When does a democracy end and a theocracy begin? In Apocalypse in the Tropics, Petra Costa investigates the increasingly powerful grip Christian evangelical leaders hold over politics in Brazil. She gains extraordinary access to the country's top political leaders, including President Lula and former president Bolsonaro, as well as to Brazil's most famous televangelist: a magnetic pastor who aspires to play puppet master to the far-right leader." -- track.tv/IMDB
