Vítor is over thirty and still lives with his mother, Fátima, in an apartment left to them by his grandmother, Júlia. Fátima is an introverted hairdresser, used to controlling her emotions with strict discipline, but when she goes to bed, she finds herself fantasizing about the charming policeman who has recently moved into the apartment next door. In the morning, Vítor claps his hands in the audience of a daytime TV show; at night, he puts on this neighbor’s uniform to satisfy the desires of a boy he met online. Júlia, meanwhile, no longer knows which drugs to take in order to sleep. Her husband is dead, but he incarnates into her best friend’s body, demanding explanations for everything Júlia does. They all believe it’s their time to be happy, but everything they desire seems to melt into air.
