Brazil’s Supreme Court opens an investigation into a film about former President Jair Bolsonaro after a Supreme Court justice unseals the case, according to reporting from multiple outlets.
The probe centers on claims that the biopic may have been supported with suspected criminal funding. The unsealing indicates the matter is now officially active within the country’s judicial system, with the court seeking to determine whether any unlawful financing is involved.
Outlets describe the action as coming directly from a Supreme Court justice, reflecting the judiciary’s role in reviewing allegations tied to the production. While coverage focuses on the biopic and the financing issue, they do not provide the same level of detail on procedural next steps or specific parties targeted at the time of publication.
Overall, both sources agree that the investigation relates to the Bolsonaro biopic and that the justification cited is suspected criminal money used to support the film’s creation or distribution.
