À Nous la Liberté is a comedic and musical film that satirizes the dehumanization of factory workers in modern society. The story follows two friends who meet while serving time in prison and later reunite as successful businessmen. However, their success is short-lived as they both yearn for freedom and escape the confines of their automated factory jobs. The film explores themes of mass production, industrial exploitation, and the impact of automation on the human experience.
The film follows the creation of the play "As Comadres" in post 2018 Brazil (after Bolsonaro's election), supervised by Ariane Mnouchkine, founder of Théâtre du Soleil in France. 20 women from different backgrounds come together, to bring to life this musical about the female universe. Beyond the theatrical questions, the film throws light on the women's desire and constant efforts to escape the dominant mechanisms of our society (including racism, for instance) and reformulate the paradigms of collective work.
