    • Dalva is a hairdresser from a working class neighborhood of Sao Paulo. After finishing her relationship with Victor, a metallurgical worker, she wins a hairdressing conquest and a ticket to Miami to compete in the finals. She faces this trip as an opportunity to get rid of her oppressive universe.
