Fifty years after it was recorded, the footage of the graduation of the first and only class of the Indigenous Rural Guard reappears. In 1970, eighty indigenous marched, in uniform, in the courtyard of a police station, to the leadership of the military dictatorship. Fifty years later, the film seeks out these guards - their bodies, their stories, their memories. Fractures, silences, what remains and what is lost in violent Brazilian history.
