Freedom

synopsys

A tv series about people that, in different times of their lives, see their liberty being constrained. Five episodes, five different places where everyone shares the same dilemma: to live between walls, next door to a world full of possibilities.

1. Liberty in Casa da Estrela presents four young women that were taken away from their families and that now live with another 41 girls in the same house.

2. Liberty in Comunidade Vida e Paz presents four men that have conditioned their life with drug abuse. Now they try to get back their life and face a future with hope on their minds.

3. Liberty in Centro Paroquial Social de Santo António de Riachos presents four old-aged people who tell life stories with a spark in their eyes of those who had a past and deals with the present as their health and age allows.

4. Liberty at Ajuda de Mãe presents four young ladies who have limited their entry into adulthood when they decided to take over their pregnancy. Today with wonderful babies on their arms, they try to establish themselves and become independent with their little families.

5. Liberty at Mikael’s house presents a young-man who deals with justice with an electronic bracelent on his ankle. He can’t leave home without having the necessary authorization. How does Mikael spend the extra time he has to spend?
