There are limits to jokes? What is the politically incorrect humor? A joke has the power to offend? It is these issues that 'Laughter of Others' discusses interviewing personalities such as comedians Danilo Gentili and Rafinha Bastos, cartoonist Laerte and Congressman Jean Wyllys, among others. The documentary delves into the world of Stand Up Comedy to discuss the fine line between comedy and offense, between legal and what creates endless lawsuits.

When he disappeared in the 1970s, Lula was a guerrilla of the Ação Libertadora Nacional. Rolindo was fighting for the retaking of his Terra Original Guarani in Mato Grosso do Sul the day he disappeared. Paulinho was on parole in May 2006, when he left home and did not return. Felipe went out at night to visit a friend, but he didn't come home.

Two sisters with very different personalities and who have not spoken with each other for years come together to fulfill their grandfather’s last wish, a kind of wild treasure hunt that leads them to know their true history, helping them to grieve the sufferings of the past and reconnect with themselves and with one another.
