Between walls that still stand, stories live.

Sofia was forced to leave her home and is now homeless. The young woman spends her days wandering the alleys of the University of São Paulo campus, where she offers her services as a tattoo artist. One ethereal night, her wanderings mingle with memories of an unfulfilled love. Wrapped in a dark, melancholy atmosphere, the film contemplates the fragility of a youth left behind. In a story that transcends borders, the life of an impenetrable fictional Sofia is imbued with the experiences of the actress of the same name who plays her. As enigmatic as an oracle, the original Portuguese title evokes the impermanence and ambiguity that haunt Sofia. She is carried away by perpetual motion, her future forever unknown.

Two girls arrive at a strange house - the place where they decided to live their last days. A mysterious yet kind woman welcomes them. They feel ready to face their destiny. An enigmatic third girl, though, seems to have other plans for them.

A Lisbon night is traversed by the intensity of René, a precarious young Brazilian who has anchored in town, immersed in personal and existential conflicts. Queer parties, love, rejection and loneliness move through her body, out of place between the two continents. Stephanie Ricci captures the experiences of a free soul on the run, of one who doesn’t know where, how and when, with vivid sequences and conversations that impregnate a magnificent city portrait.

Behind the hatred there lies A murderous desire for love
