Maria Amélia de Almeida Teles

Discovered in 1990, the clandestine grave at the Dom Bosco cemetery in Perus is a symbol of the violence and repression of the 1964 military dictatorship, whose echoes still resonate today in the state's police approach. In this documentary, we present how the work of analyzing the more than 1,049 bones found in the mass grave was carried out, and the difficulties encountered throughout this process.

Telmo is a retired theater director that realizes he doesn't remember the time he spent kept in jail during the military dictatorship in Brazil. He decides to stage a play and, with threads of memory, he improvises the lines with his young cast. Telmo dives into his own history and ends up revealing for himself what, being so painful, he'd rather forget.
