About this person
Fernando Grostein Andrade is a Brazilian filmmaker, director, producer, screenwriter, director of photography, and media entrepreneur.

His best-known work is the documentary Breaking the Taboo, which discusses alternative policies to the war on drugs and features former Brazilian president Fernando Henrique Cardoso as well as former US presidents Bill Clinton, Jimmy Carter, infectologist Drauzio Varella and writer Paulo Coelho.
