Brothers By Choice

A look within young men and women in the military. At the Brazilian military academy, Cadets are on their way to become Officials. The film illustrates a few characters followed to dissect their process of growing up. It is a coming of age story that focuses on brotherhood, how the Cadets learn that together they are stronger. Dramatic, sensitive, stunningly photographed, and full of action. A predominantly visual approach to documentary.
