Based on the life of a legendary capoeira fighter from Bahia, "Besouro" spins a fantastic tale of a young Brazilian man of African descent in search of his mission.

Renato is a shy and insecure young man, who expresses what he truly thinks only through emails. He writes to his co-workers, girlfriend, parents… he doesn't hide anything, says everything he thinks. Absolutely everything! And when it's time to send… he doesn't. Goes to the drafts folder. One day, with no explanation, all of his drafts are sent, and suddenly he has to face the dire consequences of being who he really is.

An almost forgotten writer is interviewed by a journalist.

Bruno is a young film editor who has just broke up his marriage with Regina, and returned living in his mother's house. Drowned in deep sorrow, something very weird happens in his life: people around him are gradually disappearing. But only for him. Some kind of blindness.

Joana, a young mother who works as a motogirl, accidentally discovers a factory where refugee women are exploited as slaves. She confronts the bad guys and sets the women free, but she brings a new problem to herself. The head of the security scheme that controlled the exploitation scheme needs to prove his effectiveness after this failure. For that, he decides that he will kill Joana and whoever else is with her, so that they can serve as an example. An ambush is set up for when Joana and her son, Nico, will be participating in a collective effort at the boy's school. Joana, who is an excellent fighter, will have to defend not only her son and herself, but everyone at school from a bunch of heavily armed criminals with orders to exterminate whoever is in front of them.

The day a man almost runs-over a puppy, he meets the love of his life. The couple and their dog live the dream, until she wants out.
