The motif is to map different historicities about prison's “commands” in São Paulo. The tense and violent dialogue between them operates a shock of their viewpoints, significantly opposite. This exercise reveal different realities & but not contradictory &, formed from different memorials on the “wars” involving the aforementioned “commands”.
