Vera and João are two young people who love each other but have time against them. The desire to be together forces them, in a kind of childish game, to run away from friends, home, people, and the world. Isolated in a forest, they make a pact never to separate. One day, Vera falls ill. If João cannot leave her, he also cannot ignore the need to ask for help. The unshakable faith in their love is about to break.
