Plot
A woman married to a former politician during the 1971 military dictatorship in Brazil is forced to reinvent herself and chart a new course for her family after a violent and arbitrary act.
One afternoon in 1971, Rubens Paiva, a former congressman and outspoken critic of Brazil's newly instituted military dictatorship, is taken from his home in Rio de Janeiro by government officials, told nothing more than that he must give a "deposition" to authorities, and disappears. The telling of the story stays tightly wedded to the perspective of Rubens's wife, Eunice, whose indefatigable search for the truth about her husband would stretch out for decades.
