The exhibition aims to tell the story of the resistance against military dictatorship that was implemented in Brazil in 1964 and remained in power until the indirect election of Tancredo Neves in 1985.
In those years, a resistance media was also born and expanded throughout the country, underground and in exile. Many publications of the alternative press were sold in newstands and, even censored, were important for the resistance.
In the final part of the show, a bright and emotional video installation signed by Fabio Magalhaes, over 450 names of dead and missing people during the dictatorship (the official list so far, although it is presumed that the Truth Commission will add thousands more people to it) run through the screen and fall on a disorderly mountain of words, to end up vanishing in the air.
