A maior obra ANTIGUERRA
Summary
No episódio, os apresentadores debatem se existe uma verdadeira obra antiguerra, citando o dilema de François Truffaut e exemplos como Tropa de Elite e Coringa. Vitor Soares defende que "Nada de Novo no Front" é a maior obra antiguerra da história por criticar a Primeira Guerra e ter sido perseguida pelos nazistas na Segunda. A discussão inclui o impacto social das mídias, o soft power militar e a diferença entre retratar o heroísmo bélico e a realidade devastadora da guerra.
