Volta Redonda is a Brazilian steel town founded in the 1940s by dictator Getlio Vargas on an ex-coffee valley as a powerful symbol of Brazilian modernization. The citys economy, and consequently its citizens lives, revolves around the Companha Siderurgica Nacional (CSN), the biggest industrial complex in Latin America. Although the glory days of the CSN have long passed, the company still controls life in Volta Redonda today, creating as much dispossession as wealth for the community. Brazilian Steel Town tells the story of the people tied to this ailing giant of their fears, hopes, and everyday struggles.
