Real estate development threatens the habitat of a group of friends in a mid-sized Brazilian city. They want to feel secure and yet free, and attempt to come to grips with the city and their lives using sex. They fuck in playgrounds, empty apartments, on building sites and in quarries. A film that attracts and repels – raw, political and poetic.
