Sinopsis

While delving into the archive of censored theatre during Salazar’s dictatorship, Mundo Perfeito found thousands of censored or prohibited manuscripts, as well as the reports written by the censors explaining the cuts of texts and prohibitions of stagings. Three fingers below the knee turns the censors into playwrights, using their reports to reveal the mechanisms behind censorship.
