Overview

The quiet city of Veredas is home to Casa Rosa, a famous brothel in the backlands of Minas Gerais managed by Ismael's mother, known to everyone as O Filho da Puta. Tired of his life, the young man leaves with his dog towards the coast in search of the father he never knew. Along the way, he finds himself faced with situations that, at the same time as they transform him, insist on reminding him of the fate he is fleeing.
