Prisoner of Time — Recife

A moment of extreme pain leads Manuela, without her understanding why, on a journey through time. She arrives in 1813 Brazil, a territory under Portuguese rule, where the Pernambucan Revolution is growing in the shadows—the first movement to move beyond the conspiracy stage, an inspiring step toward Brazil's independence from the Portuguese crown, which had fled Lisbon for Rio de Janeiro years earlier.

As she tries to adapt to a sea of adversity and prejudice resulting from the difference between centuries, the unexpected happens... she falls in love with a soldier and finds herself swept away by the emotions of a vibrant love story. Manuela relives historical events and encounters real-life figures. She interacts with royalty and is shocked by the most heinous business of all time... slavery.

A woman between two territories, a soul searching for herself. Through the eyes of this traveler, we will witness the origins of a nation, as passionate as they were violent. Just as a spark ignites a fire, there is a beginning to every existence. Is it possible to change the past? Will it be worth fighting against destiny, or will suffering itself be the passport to the future?
