Pedro teve depressão desde a infância. Aos 25, fez um tratamento com eletroconvulsoterapia, técnica popularmente conhecida como eletrochoque. Os efeitos colaterais, em particular os danos à memória, foram violentos. Hoje, dois anos depois das sessões, ele sabe que não é mais o mesmo de antes.
À partir do drama de Pedro, mergulhamos na história e nos usos da eletroconvulsoterapia. O que leva a debates sobre psiquiatria, saúde mental e sobre os avanços e retrocessos de um movimento que ficou conhecido como reforma psiquiátrica.
