Through her child’s eyes, Patpro will go through three periods of the history of her indigenous people, in the heart of the Brazilian forest. Tirelessly persecuted, but guided by their ancestral rites, their love of nature and their fight to preserve their freedom, the Krahô never stop inventing new forms of resistance.

The Dead and the Others follows Ihjãc, an indigenous man from the Krahô community in Brazil, as he battles contradictory desires. He must fulfill his duty to avenge his father's death, as required by tribal tradition, while also longing for a quiet existence on the outskirts of society. Amidst religious customs and a loss of connection with his tribe, he must navigate the clash between his traditional way of life and the encroaching modern world.

Karlon, born in Pedreira dos Húngaros (a slum in the outskirts of Lisbon) and a pioneer of Cape Verdean creole rap, runs away from the housing project to which he had been relocated.

Russa returns to Bairro do Aleixo, in Oporto, visiting her sister and friends with whom she celebrates her son's birthday. In this short encounter, Russa returns to her neighbourhood's collective memory, where three of the five towers still exist.
