Synopsis

This bizarre procedure terrified Brazilian gay men for decades. It's now threatening a comeback!

A London journalist returns to Brazil to face one of the demons of his adolescence: the Flour Test. This ridiculous experiment was conducted during the military dictatorship to determine whether army recruits were homosexuals. It consisted of having the men sit naked on flour to measure the circumference of their anus and the integrity of their morals. Unfortunately, this procedure is not limited to the past. Bolsonaro's ultra-homophobic government has attempted to introduce legislation similar to the infamous test.
