People sitting in the aisles and on the floor
A discussion that lasts an hour
A gay Muslim (in Rio, no less) who engages with the film, says it has changed his life and turns out to be a scholar of the Haditha movement

More to follow and if your Portugese is better than mine then please read this excellent interview.
