    • Synopsis
    • Rio de Janeiro, 2014, the hottest summer in history. The city is preparing for the Olympic Games. Rents and real estate increase, everyday we see Rio transforming into a new city. The heat builds up creating a humid and suffocating atmosphere. Ana, a 32 years old lawyer, receives the news that the building where she lives will become a luxury hotel and she must find a new place to live. Meanwhile, she notices purple spots on her body. Strange things begin to happen in the city and in Ana`s body. The heat builds up creating a humid and suffocating atmosphere. The sultriness accumulates and gives way to heavy rain. A film about accumulation and how the bodies behave (and transform) in sticky weather, full of tension and energy.
