What it actually is

German public broadcasting in Brazilian Portuguese: mini-documentaries on cities, migration, science and politics, mostly eight to fifteen minutes. Unusually for a news channel it publishes hand-made Portuguese caption tracks rather than leaving you with automatic ones, so you can read along with what is actually said. Free, publishing several times a week.
