Film Synopsis

After naturally conceiving a child during the COVID-19 pandemic, Isis and Lourenzo travel across Brazil in search of respectful, specialised prenatal care. Simultaneously, they navigate daily struggles, inside and outside their home, to secure the rights of their family in a country that records the world's highest rate of trans murders. The film follows their search for dignity and care within a hostile social landscape.
