Érica and Núbia meet in prison and form a bond that goes beyond the bars. On parole, they recount abuses, overcrowded cells, and the loss of their female identity. Without lawyers, they face this routine with courage and humor. Their stories reveal the harsh reality of female incarceration in Brazil. The Brazilian prison system, especially for women, is a place of invisibility and neglect. The stories of these women are rarely told, and when they are, they are often treated with sensationalism and stigmatization. Across the Hall arises from the urgent need to humanize these narratives. The film aims to be a tool for social debate, questioning the effectiveness and humanity of the penal system and revealing how incarceration perpetuates a structure of violence and abandonment. It's an invitation for the public to listen to, understand, and recognize the complexity of these lives, which are often lost to society even before the end of their sentences." See less
