About this organization
Mission
First Look Institute (FLI) is an independent nonprofit organization committed to fearless reporting, innovative and cinematic nonfiction filmmaking, and defending those who speak truth to power. FLI is home to three essential pro-democracy initiatives: The Intercept, an award-winning investigative digital newsroom and podcast producer that conducts original, groundbreaking reporting of pressing events, Field of Vision, which brings invaluable perspectives from documentary filmmakers, journalists, and artists into the news cycle to elevate different narratives and deepen public understanding, and the Press Freedom Defense Fund, which protects pro-democracy journalists, news organizations, and whistleblowers. FLI vigilantly protects our First Amendment rights so democracy can flourish.
About
The Intercept is an award-winning publisher of news dedicated to holding the powerful accountable through fearless, adversarial journalism.

The Intercept Brasil is The Intercept's subdomain based in Rio de Janiero, a news agency that produces content for an international audience through internet distribution channels. The Intercept gives its journalists in the US and Brazil the editorial freedom and legal support they need to expose corruption and injustice wherever they find it. Through the Research and Security group, known as Neptune, which includes award-winning research, security, engineering and editorial experts, The Intercept makes documents available for inquiry and analysis in secure environments.
