An intense and introspective movie thats shows the journey of a person that dreamed about individual freedom and the liberation of all men; a trip in a historical era, to rediscover the places, the names, the faces of the strength and of the revolutionary spirit in the 70s, between the political and social contestation, the feminine and sexual emancipation, the psychedelic drugs and the alternative and progressive rock.
