Between reality and fantasy, between Brazil’s colonial past and the voracious agricultural companies of the present, the city of Goiás brings Fernanda back to her roots. She returns to her wealthy uncle’s home, after the death of her adoptive mother, aiming to implode a few certainties and reveal the painful truth about her origins.
