What Is Torre das Donzelas About?
The premise of Torre das Donzelas without spoilers.
The film chronicles former Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff’s poignant return to the women’s section of Tiradentes Jail in São Paulo, known as “Torre das Donzelas” or “Damsels’ Tower.” During the 1970s, Rousseff and other women were political prisoners held captive during Brazil’s oppressive military dictatorship. Forty-five years later, they reunite to confront their shared past, breaking the silence and confronting the horrors of that period.
