"What can a portrait photograph reveal about a political system? What can a picture taken 35 years ago tell us about our contemporary society?"

Based on photographs taken on the arrest of political prisoners during the Portuguese dictatorship (1926-1974), this documentary aims to convey the mechanisms by which a dictatorial regime sought to sustain its existence throughout 48 years.
