Intrigue

In Argentina under dictatorship in 1978, an eighteen-year-old political activist is taken by a paramilitary squad, locked in a garage and tortured. Her tormentor, a former tenant, falls in love with her.

In the 70's, eighteen year-old Maria Fabiani lives with her French mother Diane in an old house in Buenos Aires, subletting rooms and giving classes to illiterate adults in the slums. One of the tenants, Felix, has a non-corresponded crush on Maria. When the teenager is abducted in her house by the Argentinean army accused of subversion, her mother seeks her out in the 23rd Precinct where one of the military without uniform tells her that they are heading with Maria. While Diane desperately tries to find information about her daughter, Maria is submitted to torture in the hideous underground of the Garage Olimpo.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
