I'm sure this whole film is one big hoax. Remember, next sunday is april fool's day!
The film director, Urandir Fernandes de Oliveira, (initials UFO?) is into the paranormal and an ufologist. Look him up!
The scientists presented: There is no record of them. If, as the voice over claims, they are scientists,they should have a webpage at their institution, or there should be references to their articles, but using their names and searching, there is nothing to be found.
Just look up "Mauro Dias, Geographer cartographer". No results of this "famous" Geographer and Cartographer!
OK maybe Helo Bagda gama, the famous Geologist then? No results either.....
Well maybe Paulo Cesar Parra the Civil engineer then? No results at all!
So Carlos Fabiano the world famous Astronomer will give us some results, but NO!
OK but Eduardo Della Santa will be there to find.... Oh no! Not again no way to find them at all!
The stupid "documentary" makers forgot to give their characters a life outside the "documentary", no Facebook pace, no Twitter account, no reference to their work, nothing at all!

Also, no self-respecting scientist would claim that the atmosphere has a refractive index equal to that of glass, like they do somewhere in the film.

 Which would indicate one of 2 things:
 1. They have not published… anything, which would then indicate the finds are not scientific.
 Or 2: They do not exist.

Looking at their picture of the Earth as a giant toilet bowl may well be a good indication of a hoax also!

Bipolar Model?
Their wiki says:

Another alternative model descripting Antarctica as a distinct continent. There is still an "ice wall" in this model, but it not Antarctica. Beyond the rays of the sun the waters will naturally freeze.

This even crazier. This requires an ice wall in The Pacific ocean!

Very good series of films. Can't wait for number 5.
No flat earther succeeds in refuting any of the arguments made in the films when I read all the comments.

In my previous answer, by "map" I meant the pattern of sunlight.
The circular map in itself is not 'wrong', as long as one realizes that it is the azimuthal equidistant projection of a spherical earth.
Correct distances in the radial direction, totally wrong distances in any other direction.

....but unfortunately for them, the map is not wrong. Anyone can draw this map just by looking up daylight hours across the world.

Yes this is deadly for the flat earth hoax isn't it?

Flat Earth Theory / Sun over a flat Earth

It is not too difficult to find out for any location on Earth the times of sunrise and sundown at any time in the year. This allows to draw the regions of sunlight and darkness.
The patterns this generates are in my mind impossible. So where is the sun above a flat earth, and how does this behave throughout the year? Can anyone explain this?
Look here:
