Synopsis

Easter, 1999. In a small Brazilian town, 12-year-old Kátia is determined to make her First Communion - even if it means trying for the third time. After all, practice makes perfect, right? Struggling with a strict religious upbringing, she hopes this will finally be her charm. But things take a turn with the arrival of Augusta, a bold new classmate from Barcelona, who's already made a name for herself by freeing three lions during a circus show. Their brief but powerful encounter becomes a catalyst, pushing Kátia to confront the cages in her own life.
