Free Brazil Movement (MBL, Portuguese: Movimento Brasil Livre) is a Brazilian libertarian movement founded in 2014. Its leader is the activist Kim Kataguiri.

According to the newspaper Folha de S.Paulo, the MBL was mainly responsible for the convening of the demonstrations of 15 March and 12 April in 2015 against the social governmental establishment of Dilma Rousseff and the Workers' Party. The group's headquarters are located in São Paulo, and according to The Economist, was "founded last year to promote the answers of the free market for the country's problems" In manifesto published on the internet, the MBL cites his five goals, "free and independent press, economic freedom, separation of powers, free and reputable elections, and the end of direct and indirect subsidies to dictatorships".

Student movements in the state of Paraná have accused the Free Brasil Movement of attacking students on strike against PEC 241.
