Synopsis
In Brazil in the 1970s, the daily life of the Paiva family is violently disrupted by the arrest of the father, a former Labour Party member of parliament. The mother, Eunice, who had been indifferent to politics up until that point, became a fierce fighter against the military dictatorship. A film of great emotional and political power.
