Plot
In 1883, in Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian Navy rebelled against the country's government (an episode known as the Navy Revolt). Six months of intense fighting caused incalculable material and human losses. Inside one of the Navy ships, a deserter is captured. The commander punishes the French mercenary with the most unlikely of punishments: the torture of silence.
