Fernanda Torres stars in this Portuguese-language biographical drama directed by Walter Salles. In 1970, former policitian Rubens Paiva (Selton Mello) returns to Brazil after six years in exile, bringing his wife Eunice (Torres) and their five children with him. When he is forcibly disappeared in 1971, her inquiries into his fate result in her own arrest and torture. With the ruling military dictatorship refusing to admit that he was even arrested, Eunice attempts to continue with her life and raise her children, becoming a lawyer and activist, until the truth is finally revealed many years later. The cast also includes Fernanda Montenegro, Antonio Saboia and Marjorie Estiano.
