- Synopsis
- Based on a true history, 50 Days follows Daniel’s journey, a father who decides to investigate by his own the murder of his son by cops, under unclear circumstances.
  Not believing the police version and against the will of his own family, Daniel takes 50 days leave from work to prove the innocence of his son, accused by the cops of being a criminal. FACING a flawed system and using his unusual intelligence to find evidences, he surprisingly succeeds putting the corrupted police officers in jail.
  Daniel’s son was just another boy from the São Paulo’s outskirts who was “at the wrong time, in the wrong place”, the difference is that this time the policeMEN are busted and sentenced to 24 years in prison.
