A member of the Brazilian Revolutionary Communist Party (PCBR), Theodomiro Romeiro dos Santos was the first Brazilian prisoner sentenced to death in the republican period - for the murder of a sergeant in 1971. The sentence was later changed to a sentence of life in prison. Arrested at 18, he was savagely tortured and served nine years in prison. The imminence of the 1979 Amnesty law gave him the certainty that they planned to kill him. Theodomiro then flees, embarking on an adventure which the details have remained hidden for years. In this film, accompanied by his youngest son, Guga, Theodomiro retraces his path.
