Two actors, Camila Morgado and Ricardo Blat stage a pocket-show as a tribute to poet Vinicius de Moraes. This is the starting point for reconstituing a trajectory without equal on the cultural scenario of the country. Born in 1913, in Rio de Janeiro, from a middle-class family, Vinicius was witness to and the main agent of important transformation in the city. With a degree in law, he was an erudite poet, a diplomat, playwright, and film critic, until he came closer to popular music. When he died, in 1980, he left a heritage of 400 poems gathered in 12 books and some 400 lyrics for music.
