Freedom of InĂŞs Etienne Romeu

“The last prisoner in Rio is free”

  • Documentary

August 29, 1979, Talavera Bruce Penal Institute, Bangu, Rio de Janeiro. After serving eight years in prison, InĂŞs Etienne Romeu, the only survivor of the "House of Death" in PetrĂłpolis and the first political prisoner sentenced to life in prison in Brazil, left prison benefiting from Amnesty. Norma Bengell filmed this moment: from the prison door to her home with her family, InĂŞs was welcomed by family, friends and members of the Brazilian Amnesty Committee, in what marked the first act of the historic denunciation that InĂŞs would carry out against her tormentors and the Military Regime.
