Elisabete (Cecilia Retamoza) was born in Mexico, but spent her childhood with her parents on the idyllic beach of Tabatinga, in the northeast of Brazil. Removed from other children, Daniela (Bruna Belmont) was her only friend. Because of a mysterious trauma, Elisabete abandoned her home and has never settled in one place since. Elisabete, now thirty, yearns for a sense of identity. She feels uncomfortable in her own skin, a foreigner in her own world.
Directed by Edson Lemos Akatoy. Akatoy (João Pessoa, Brazil) holds a degree in Cinema and Audiovisual from the Federal University of Paraíba (Brazil, 2017). During the course, he made four short films and one feature film.
