Como Um Olhar Sem Rosto (As Presidiárias)
"Carandiru Women's Prison. An opportunity to talk about the freedom, loneliness and hope of women who, although incarcerated, keep their dreams alive." Adopting the semi-open prison regime, a penitentiary in São Paulo allows inmates to work outside. According to the psychologists of the establishment - who during the film talk about the scientific level and the practical results of their work - this system is seen and developed as a fair achievement of the inmates and not as a privilege, gradually ensuring their social reintegration. In their testimonies, the inmates expose the problems they face on the outside in the face of a society that marginalizes them, even after they have served their full sentence. Stimulus Award from the São Paulo State Culture Secretariat, 1982.
