On the run after a failed assassination attempt, Heraldo takes refuge in a cheap sex motel on Brazil’s northeast coast. His arrival disrupts the lives of motel owner Elias and his restless wife Dayana. The film about a dangerous love triangle, in which passions and guns intertwine, is the work of the prolific Karim Ainouz, one of the most successful Brazilian directors today.
