Four years after a military coup overthrew the Brazilian government in 1964, all civil rights were suspended and torture became a systematic practice. Using a mix of fiction and documentary this extraordinary film is a searing record of personal memory, political repression and the will to survive. Interviews with eight women who were political prisoners during the military dictatorship are framed by the fantasies and imaginings of an anonymous character, portrayed by actress Irene Ravache.<\/p>\n

Filmmaker Murat, like the interviewees, was herself tortured and imprisoned; her award-winning film shatters the silence imposed on the survivors and the collective will to forget.<\/p>\n

Press comments<\/h4>\n

\"An extraordinary film .... Eight political prisoners, all women articulate the price of surviving an experience that even their friends, husbands and children wish to cushion in silence.\" Judy Block, Pacific film Archives<\/p>\n

\"Remarkably revealing... made with determination to break the rigid curtain of silence.\" Judy Stone,\u00a0SF Chronicle<\/p>\n

\"A fundamental film. A clear, exciting and true reflection about a universal theme: the fight for life in authoritarian regime.\"\u00a0JORNAL DO BRASIL<\/p>\n

\"Touching, clear and serene. A film that work with facts, memories and know how to do it in the direction of the future. Indispensable.\"\u00a0JORNAL DA TARDE<\/p>\n

\"In the same way than Marcel Ophuls and Claude Lanzmann, Lucia Murat did more than a historical documentary that dare to immerse in a tabu theme. She did one of the most humanistic work that I saw in the last times.\" FOLHA DE S. PAULO<\/p>\n
