After eight years of a political exile imposed by the Brazilian military dictatorship, sociologist Herbert de Souza returns to his homeland. Alongside democracy activists, he faces the arrival of AIDS and puts the devastating impact of hunger under the spotlight. Overcoming his fragile health and personal tragedy, he creates the largest social awareness campaign in Brazilian history.

In 1917, Rebeca flees from hunger and war in Poland and arrives in Brazil to reunite with her husband and start a new life. In Rio de Janeiro, she discovers that her husband has died and ends up being held hostage by a large prostitution and women trafficking ring, led by the ruthless Tzvi. Rebeca transgresses her own beliefs and finds allies who are experiencing the same drama. Together, they decide to fight for freedom.
