Maria lives in Manaus and is 19 years old. She is a student of education and a transvestite. She likes people and the city where she lives, but walks with her eyes downcast. She feels ignored. What kind of woman is she? Based on these feelings and questions, the film paints a portrait of the complexity of the trans experience in a country like Brazil.
She lives with Berta, her mother, a seamstress with whom she has a difficult relationship. Sandrine, a math teacher and transsexual, is going through a moment of insecurity, but continues steadfast in her quest for sexual reassignment surgery.
