Story
During the Portuguese dictatorship, homosexuality was a heavily punished crime, considered a disease by medicine and despised by society. Three queer people try to survive and make sense of their situation. Marta faces the legend of the lesbian ghost Henriqueta, Valentim wants to escape the country to be a dancer and Zé is the victim of the 'arrebentas'.
