Women authors interweave their creations in this anthology-style feature film. The scripts were adapted from literary short stories written by Brazilian women in the late 19th century, resulting in four short films directed by filmmakers from underrepresented groups in Brazil’s 2024 film industry. Themes such as death, healing, marriage, and desire are ubiquitous in stories where women revisit their past in search of freedom.
