Before dawn in 1934, Joaquim, who has left a love affair unfinished, flings a packet of letters out of a moving train. In the same carriage ride the men of the Marinha Grande uprising, seized by Salazar's police and on the first leg of a journey to Cape Verde, where they will be the first inmates of the Tarrafal camp. Many years on, Eugénia, sent to interview a rare survivor of that African hell, learns of the bundle and of its intended reader. Generations apart, the two find a strange closeness in shared memories, bleak childhoods and loves that could never be.
