This. This movie is a marvelous adaptation of the book and it's a real life event! As my dad was born in Brazil around the time of the military dictatorship, this movie felt even more real, I was in the edge of my seat scared for the life of every person on screen. It is very sad to know how many lost their lives fighting for freedom
