Production



Producer Tomislav Blazic was working on another film with the Federal Police on the arms and drug trafficking project when Operation Car Wash began to emerge. Seeing the size of what was happening to the country, he decided to stop this other project and get behind the scenes of Operation Car Wash so that society would be aware of the evil that corruption brings to everyone.

The film took a year and a half for research, screenplay and filming and was supported by the Brazilian Federal Police itself, which advised the production, gave interviews to the director and screenwriters, and authorized the filming of scenes at its headquarters in Curitiba and the Rio de Janeiro.

Criticism and compliments



According to Humberto Trezzi of Zero Hora newspaper, the film has some sins. On-screen prosecutors and federal police officers interact harmoniously, when their relationship is often seen as tense and antagonistic at the time of conducting award-winning allegations. The director chose to give real names to politicians and businessmen (Lula, former president of the republic, appears only through a grouchy and obnoxious representation), but gave the police officers pseudonyms. The critic questions this artistic decision of different treatment. Even to circumvent the accusation of Manichaeism, some character delegates say that they voted for the PT and debated the Car Wash (as has happened, in fact, in any Brazilian family). If the film charges against petistas at this first moment, the sequels should attack the "tucanos" (supporters of PSDB) and the "peemedebistas" (supporters of PMDB).[https://gauchazh.clicrbs.com.br/cultura-e-lazer/cinema/noticia/2017/08/policia-federal-a-lei-e-para-todos-lava-jato-se-mira-no-espelho-e-gosta-do-que-ve-9883383.html "Polcia Federal - A Lei Para Todos": Lava-Jato se mira no espelho e gosta do que v]

According to Katia Kreutz of the Cinemascope website, Ruy Barbosa's phrase, which opens the film, could also be used for its conclusion. From seeing the triumph of nullities triumphing, from seeing dishonor thrive, from seeing injustice grow, from seeing the powers rise in the hands of the wicked, man discourages virtue, laughs at honor, to be ashamed to be honest. When the lights come on, some of the audience may even laugh, some already expecting the continuations of this story - which promises to be long Others will simply get up from their seats ashamed to live in a country where they live. law is not yet in fact for everyone.[https://cinemascope.com.br/criticas/policia-federal-a-lei-e-para-todos/ Polcia Federal A Lei Para Todos], Cinemascope

According to Artur Xexo of the newspaper O Globo, Polcia Federal is a 'good guy and bad guy' movie that starts from the premise that the good guy is the Federal Police and the bad guy, the Workers Party. If this bothers you, do not go near the door of the movie theaters where it is playing. If you accept this role distribution, if only for expecting from the movie just a piece of fiction, then go without fright. Federal Police is quite a thriller and has worked as a catharsis for viewers who seem outraged by recent news.[https://oglobo.globo.com/cultura/onde-esta-dinheiro-21893474 Onde est o dinheiro?]
