"Hilda Humana Hilst" is a documentary that explores the life and work of writer Hilda Hilst, one of the most enigmatic figures in Brazilian literature. Combining interviews, archival footage, and testimonials from friends and scholars, the film outlines the author's journey, from her poetic and theatrical works to her more experimental writings. In addition to addressing her literary production, the film also delves into her philosophical and spiritual aspects and the influence she had on her contemporaries.

The film portrays the archaeological excavations carried out at the headquarters of the now-defunct DOI-Codi (Information Operations Detachment – ​​Internal Defense Operations Center), a place where, it is estimated, more than 7,000 political prisoners experienced torture and horror. The complex of five buildings, listed in 2014, operated from 1969 to 1983 as a repressive agency of the brazilian military dictatorship. The researchers' search for material remains and evidence of the passage of victims of repression through the site, such as inscriptions on the walls, personal objects and paper records, is essential to keeping alive the memory of the atrocities of the military dictatorship in Brazil.
