Prisão Mulher

Paula Sacchetta

EM DESENVOLVIMENTO, 70 MIN , 2027

Between 1978 and 1982, during the dictatorship, a revolutionary theater project, “art as a process of recreation in prisons”, took place inside the Women's Penitentiary of the Capital, in São Paulo. Decades later, the lost images of the project filmed by Denoy de Oliveira were rediscovered. The film rescues this story with the women who were there at that time and portrays a new theatrical creation with women imprisoned in the same place today.
