A dystopian sci-fi documentary-drama that uses a time-traveler's investigation of police violence to interrogate systemic racism and social repression in Brazil.

Shots fired inside a club frequented by black Brazilians in the outskirts of Brasilia leave two men wounded. A third man arrives from the future in order to investigate the incident and prove that the fault lies in the repressive society.
