A children, a fetish statue, the river and the fear.

Richard finally finds a friend, but he can't be of his own.

"The Xingu River obeys no laws; it has been restoring and resurrecting spirits against all the evil that has been done to it," proclaims Dona Raimunda, who, with her double-edged axe, justly separates evil from good. Her struggle exposes the harsh reality of segregation experienced by riverside communities, riverside dwellers, and Indigenous people in the Volta Grande do Xingu, in Altamira, Pará, since the construction of the Belo Monte Dam.

Cássio and Otto are a middle-aged couple. Both are experiencing the progression of low vision and dealing with this condition differently. Otto continues his acting projects, preparing to perform in the theater, while Cássio doesn't feel comfortable leaving his apartment. This conflict challenges love's ability to keep them together. Between sympathy and resilience, desire, fear, and hope, they grow stronger by groping their way through the unknown.
