A Matter of Choice

Award-winning journalist Daniela Arbex examines the horrors of the Colônia psychiatric hospital, where more than 60,000 people were killed over decades.

In this amusing story, Frederico Bruestlein, a trusted man of Prince François Ferdinand, owner of the Colony Dona Francisca, comes together with his troubled assistant Tonico to the city these days to write a report to Prince Ferdinand about how things are going here. In this astral journey, Bruestlein receives a shock of modernity, goes through unusual situations and revisits events, works and projects in which he worked in the past.
