In the films “Elite Squad 1” and “Elite Squad 2”, Nascimento has reservations towards the rich in the Brazilian society because of their greed and corruption. The rich class is presented as consisting of selfish drug lords who ride in armored cars and are more than willing to kill anybody who get along their way. The seniors in the law enforcement agencies have to protect the interest of this class because they are bribed periodically to protect the drug trafficking industry. For instance, Major Olievera goes out of his way to protect the drug lords against his duty of stopping them (Padilha, scene 4). I agree with Nascimento on his criticism of the rich within the Rio de Janeiro (Padilha, scene 6).
The media is presented as adopting a partisan approach in reporting the activities. The media sugarcoats the drug lords and extorts their reporting of the events in the Rio’s crime and corruption as seen in the film “Elite Squad 2” instead of exposing the truth. This differs with the media reporting of the events in Presunto Culpable where the truth is reported in black and white of the shooting incident (Padilha, scene 8).
The Scope of corruption on the two films
The main causes of corruption in these movies are the enticements that compel the law enforcement agencies to cover the tracks of those involved in illegal business of selling drugs. In addition, the weak government control systems may also be blamed for the state of corruption in these movies. In order to stop these corruptions, the governments of these societies should introduce better trained and properly remunerated law enforcement agencies. The governments may also introduce bills that promote longer penalties for those convicted of corruption. Finally, staff rotation and transfers should be encouraged.
