Every year, four ex-soldiers who call themselves "Os Imortais" ("The Immortals"), get together with four women to celebrate their war deeds and remember the old days, back in the war. On the summer of 1985, tired of their monotonous lives, they decide to rob a bank. Joaquim Malarranha, a chief inspector from the local police force who is about to retire, crosses their path and chooses to spend his last days of duty trying to solve the robbery. But as he carries on with his investigation, he discovers more than he could have ever imagined...
После смерти матери юный бразилец Пако, оставшийся без цели в жизни и без гроша в кармане, решает поехать в Испанию, где он никогда не был, но куда всю свою жизнь мечтала вернуться его мать, давным-давно уехавшая в поисках лучшей доли. Чтобы заработать на дорогу и попасть на родину матери, о которой он и сам мечтал, Пако соглашается на предложение контрабандиста Игоря. Дело совсем простое: перевезти в Лиссабон какую-то скрипку, передать и получить деньги! Но наивный юнец даже не подозревает, что является разменной монетой в жесткой партии, суть которой - отчаяние, а цель - выжить.
Miguel (Luis Miguel Cintra) is lucky that his income will only level off if he neglects his business as a financier, and his wife and family will be well supported. Why? Because he has begun hearing noises that no one else hears, noises that bother him a great deal, and that make it impossible for him to bear human society. His wife (Jessica Weiss) is thoroughly put out by this radically changed behavior in her formerly good husband, but though she considers leaving him, she stays by his side. Deep in the mountains, Cecelia (Rita Dias), a devout, pure young cowherd, has been brutally raped by an old man. Her boyfriend (Pedro Hestnes) has killed the rapist, and fled the area. As a result of the rape, Cecelia is pregnant. One day, while driving in the mountains, Miguel gives Cecelia's boyfriend a ride. The two of them chance upon her sitting amid the rocks with her infant baby.
