Synopsis
Set in a working-class Sao Paulo household that gets turned upside down by everyday dramas of sexual and emotional betrayal. The story revolves around fortysomething Alice who works as a manicurist in a beauty salon, and lives in a neighborhood in the outskirts of Sao Paulo, sharing an apartment with her mother, Dona Jacira, her husband, Lindomar, a taxi-driver, and their three sons, Lucas, Edinho, and Junior.
