Isabella, Jonata and Pedro form a trio of rad Black, poz, and trans queers living in a parallel universe of contemporary Brazil. The amnesiac effects of crap-italism have morphed into a virus which threatens to melt minds. With a hairless guinea pig, sighing tea cups, poz daddy romances, and art that turns kids queer, the trio wanders down the rabbit hole of a witchy hoarder. Moulding Lynchian soundscapes with kooky zooms, the film blossoms into a surrealist cabaret where collective memory spews in the face of dystopian oppression.
