As Brazil faces the tightening grip of a military dictatorship, Eunice Paiva, a mother of five must reinvent herself and her family when authorities abduct her husband, an ex-congressman and strong critic of the dictatorship. An outstanding performance from Fernanda Torres as Eunice Paiva.
"Played wonderfully by Fernanda Torres, Eunice is on screen almost throughout. She's at the centre of a family drama and political thriller that really blossoms as a survival story."
