Pursuit of Truth. Ambition. Meritocracy. Beauty and Art. These are some of our company’s core values. We create works that have impacted millions of lives—works that reclaim our history, so long mistreated; that address the wounds of education; and that present delicate topics with sobriety—producing some of the most-watched documentaries in Brazil. **Our Mission:** To reclaim good values, ideas, and feelings in the hearts of all Brazilians. **Our Vision:** To become Brazil’s most influential cultural ecosystem. **About Brasil Paralelo’s Culture:** Our values are not superficial virtues imposed on people who merely want to work—they articulate the attitudes that brought us to where we are today. Freedom. Pursuit of Truth. Ambition. Meritocracy. Beauty and Art. These are some of our company’s core values. We create works that impact the lives of millions of people, presenting delicate topics with sobriety and producing some of the most-watched documentaries in Brazil. **1 \- Truth:** Truth is not relative—it is the highest good and an inexhaustible goal. It follows that there are no safe spaces, because to think you must risk offending. Contrary to many modern companies, here there is no ideological discrimination against libertarians or conservatives. There is no disrespect toward your intelligence. There is no newspeak. You need not walk on eggshells. There is no thought policing. Orthodoxy holds no privilege. **2 \- Freedom:** Individuals differ in how they choose, act, and reap results—and restricting their freedom constitutes abuse of power. We encourage developing awareness of personal responsibility for outcomes, and we value those who can self-motivate to work and learn autonomously. **3 \- Art:** Whatever cannot be grasped through rational language will be communicated and felt through well-crafted art. We see audiovisual creation as an opportunity for convergence between technology and art. We believe that innovative tools, combined with an unwavering pursuit of beauty, guide us in fulfilling our mission. **4 \- Ambition:** Those who strive for utmost perfection in their achievements—even if never fully attained—will always give their best. We are here to build products that become benchmarks and realize their full potential. **5 \- Meritocracy:** All of us desire the best life and the best world—and the only legitimate way to achieve this is through merit. Any achievement without merit is unstable and fleeting. Thus, we deliberately reward higher performers more generously rather than accepting an equity that first demotivates some and later spreads to others. **6 \- Unity:** We are all different here—not only physically, but also in ideas and perspectives. Knowing when to set aside our differences and prioritize our shared objective is essential—because together we can accomplish what would be impossible alone. Unity is a matter of survival, and survival is a matter of responsibility toward our mission. **7 \- Diplomacy:** Being diplomatic means being humble. Respecting people means remembering that we do not possess the truth—and that alone, we cannot build the world we inhabit. Being diplomatic is not being false; rather, it is engaging with the world instead of separating ourselves from it.
