About
When a doctor decides to carry out an AIDS prevention program inside Latin America’s largest prison: the Casa de Detenção de São Paulo – Carandiru, he meets the future victims of one of the darkest days in Brazilian history.
This prison drama shifts from a medical mission to a brutal historical reckoning through the eyes of those trapped within the walls. It trades typical genre tropes for a devastating look at human dignity amidst state-sanctioned violence.
