Photographer's POV Capturing the Brazilian Protests

Brasil, 2013. Durante os protestos essa semana no Rio eu fiz um registro do registro das minhas fotografias. É um video que conta exatamente momentos antes de cada fotografia tirada, acho que além disso, conta a história de algo que parece estar marcando nosso país. Confesso que me emocionei ao final.

Rio de Janiero-based photographer Michel de Souza was on the scene shooting photos the people protesting the lack of public services. He also captured this point-of-view footage using two GoPro cameras mounted to his DSLRs.

Riot police were sent to fire tear gas and rubber bullets in order to break up the gathering.

De Souza: “I confess that, towards the end, it moved me to tears."
