    • Synopsis
    • In Ceará's 1932 drought, several concentration camps were created to imprison and prevent the refugees from reaching the city of Fortaleza. Military and civil society decided to enslave them, legitimizing the interests of the economic elite through policies of repression under the influence of European eugenic theory. Remnants narrate fragments of their memories and unaccomplished mournings, witnessed in the ruins of the concentration camps and in the cult of the "souls of the dam", resistant to the strong historical erasure.
