Socorro Nobre
Maria do Socorro Nobre decides to write a letter to the Polish artist Franz Krajcberg after reading an article about him in Veja magazine. Socorro was imprisoned to almost twenty-one years in a Salvador, Bahia, women's prison, whereas Franz is a tortured artist who lost his family and grew up in a Polish ghetto but survived the Holocaust. Franz traveled to Brazil to reclaim his life wish and urges Socorro to dream anew about life.
