Socorro Nobre
When inmate Maria do Socorro Nobre reads an article in Veja magazine about the Polish artist Franz Krajcberg, she decides to write him a letter. Socorro was sentenced to more than twenty-one years in a women's prison in Salvador, Bahia, while Franz is a tortured artist who lost his family and spent his childhood in a Polish ghetto but survived the Holocaust. Franz moved to Brazil to fulfill a lifelong dream of living close to nature, and he inspires Socorro to do the same.
