Best Picture Oscar-nominee based on the true story of Eunice Paiva (Fernanda Torres in an Academy Award-nominated performance), a Brazilian activist of the anti-military dictatorship movement who spent years investigating her husband's disappearance.
In Rio de Janeiro in the 1970s, during the dictatorship, former deputy Rubens Paiva was taken from his home by soldiers to be interrogated. He was never found again. The search for truth lasts 30 long years. And when the answers begin to appear, Eunice Paiva feels the first symptoms of Alzheimer's disease.
