Synopsis
An impossible love. Two young people in love. Vera and Joao cannot find the space, or the time, or the identity that, in this life, might resolve this love. Their desire to be together forces them, in a type of childish game, to flee from their friends, from home, from people and from the world. They become isolated in the forest. They make a pact: never become separated "for nothing in this world". Each with the other, each for each other, they are capable of everything. Vera reveals a mysterious secret to Joao, one that she never told anyone. An amazing experience that places her in grave danger and from which she is then saved by powers that she has never been able to explain. But Vera weakens and falls ill. The unshakeable faith in their love is about to break.
