Phantom Ladies Over Rio. Summer. Rio de Janeiro under possessions. Gay times. Sharks on attack. Claudete, a 64-year-old black woman, is facing a great dilemma: she only falls in love with gay men.

The film follows the daily experiences and dreams of the residents of a specific type of seclusion of freedom in which the convicts assume the maintenance of the space, the control of their own activities and their security. With a multifaceted approach, it proposes a reflection on the creative potential of incarcerated people, the documentary genre itself and its truth.
