- Synopsis
- In Salvador, Antônio, 23, and Miguel, 15, are very close brothers who live with their mother, Gleide. Because Miguel doesn't conform to heteronormative behavior, he causes discomfort within the family.His vulnerable situation makes him an easy target for a couple who traffics teenagers for sexual exploitation.
  When they take Miguel to São Paulo, Antônio sets out to find him. With no clues and relying solely on his faith in Ogum, he approaches the LGBTQIA+ community in São Paulo, hoping to discover his brother's whereabouts. Three years later, Antônio has become a more tolerant and inclusive person. In a cabaret, he recognizes his brother’s voice in the trans singer Michele. She runs away, but he follows her, reconnecting their sibling bond.
