Documentary about the musical and social phenomenon of Brazilian funk (or Carioca Funk), a style derived from Miami Bass, based on repetitive bass drum loops and lyrics full of sexual and violent overtones, not directly related to American funk/soul music. This style emerged in the slums and poor neighborhoods of Rio de Janeiro, and is deeply associated with the lower social classes, but is gradually being accepted on higher social circles. The film is specially interested in women's participation, focusing on its major female stars.

A sensory immersion into the long-term projects of photographer Vincent Rosenblatt, a Parisian who has been based in Rio de Janeiro for more than 20 years. The film explores the worlds of Rio’s funk scene, the bate-bola carnival celebrations, and the sound-system parties of Belém do Pará, while also including a journey through Poland. In this polyphonic voyage, he unveils his visual obsessions and reveals a perpetual state of searching, in which life, image, and catharsis become intertwined.
