Plot Synopsis
We follow the endeavours of two prisoners in a Brazilian cell. One is political prisoner Valentin Arregui, the other is homosexual rapist Luis Molina.

During the course of time, Molina tells the story of a German Nazi propaganda movie, thereby befriending Valentin more and more. -
Reviews
"Explores the rapture and torture of desire, and the tension between harsh reality and escapist fantasy."—Peter Canavese, Groucho Reviewshttp://www.grouchoreviews.com/reviews/3174
"Centering on the evolving camaraderie in prison between a gay window-dresser and a Marxist radical, the movie, like the book, is schematic, and the recreations of old movie scenes are uneven, perhaps a result of helmer Babenco's limited visual style."—Emanuel Levy, EmanuelLevy.Comhttp://www.emanuellevy.com/search/details.cfm?id=7373Cast
