Narciso em Ferias plot

On December 13, 1968, the military regime in Brazil adopted Decree AI-5, a law that made it possible to arrest 'suspects' without trial. Two weeks later, the then 26-year-old singer-composer Caetano Veloso was arrested and imprisoned by plainclothes police officers. He spent the first week in solitary confinement, then spent two months in a military prison. Fifty years later, the now world-famous singer can still talk about his prison experiences very precisely, rationally and sometimes emotionally.
