- In the revolted 70's in Argentina, teenage Graciela is an artist and a poet. She and Julio, a charismatic student leader, are brought together by their ideals for social justice. Her poems reach young musician Flecha, who dreams of singing them for a roaring crowd. As the times grow harder and more dangerous, friends are persecuted, Graciela and Julio protect each other, but the dictatorship kidnaps them. Graciela's mother desperate search for her daughter brings her together with the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo, who's relentless clamor for their missing children is only met with more terror and death from the bloody dictatorship. 35 years later, that mother publishes a book of Graciela's poems, and brings it to Flecha, now an accomplished musician. He turns them into songs that let her words live and fly.
- SENTENCED is based on the true story. The 9th Unit was the jail where the bloody military dictatorship of General Videla concentrated thousands of political prisoners, pulling apart their leaders into two Wards of Death, to kill them without trial. It was awful realise that not only the prisoners would be murdered by the army, but also their relatives. Along this film there are many more than kidnappings and deaths, the fight for the life and dignity is renewed day by day. The will, the wit and humor were weapons of the resistance, beyond the limits of the human understanding.
