But it is also the most religious country in the world, and this same Brazil reveals itself as a very conservative country, resistant to dealing with sexuality issues. Every day a woman dies as a result of the prohibition on abortion and more than half of the murders of homosexuals and transsexuals in the world occurs in Brazil. Following the trail of Jandira, a young woman who lost her life after undergoing an illegal abortion, from the place of her disappearance to the political sphere, this film provides a critical look into the paradox of Brazilian sexuality and the rise of conservatism and religion, such as radical evangelism, which penetrates the government itself and bodes a dark future for women's and LGBT rights in the country.
