Résumé

Encerrados is a long voyage lasted ten years, through 74 prisons across all the Latin American countries ; a journey born from the desire to recount a continent through prisoners' world. Prisons are a reflection of society, a mirror of what is happening in a country, from small dramas to the great social and economic crises. The prison is a community, a non-place where nevertheless people live each day with precise rhythms and often at the limits of the humane, when there are 18 people sleeping in a cell meant for 4 and the bathroom is simply a hole in a corridor.
Each prison provided a way of narrating a continent from inside and out, discovering light where everything seemed dark, the reflection of the violence and the vitality, contrast with each other in a single segment that is simply the story of South America.
