Synopsis
For a year, the inmates of the Estabelecimento Prisonal de Paços de Ferreira have been rewriting and acting Aeschylus' Oresteia. Interrogating citizenship in a space where it is deprived, the unlikely stage of a high security prison, highlights how the straight path of dignity must encounter the “Other”, as project and subject of artistic work.
