“It is a great responsibility to tell a fictional story inspired by a real event that destroyed the lives of so many people and shocked the country. We want to give light, in the most sensitive and honorable way possible, to the perspective of those who lived it all up close, and are still living”, said the general director Julia Rezende, in the press release.
