Women who fought military dictatorship: their lives in prision

Excellent documentary on military dictatorship in Brazil, focused on former female political convicts, includind ex president Dilma Rousseff. Testimonies are strong, deep, moving. They show the bravery of those heroines, the cowardice and stupidity of dictatorship agents, the complexities of clandestine fighting organizations, the existentialist issues when do not know if you will survice and freedom and life depend on solidarity and unity, the day-to-day new habits, women specific issues inside a prision.
