Logline

Day-to-day life takes a romantic turn in this microcosm featuring endearing and realistic characters.

Zeca finds it hard to follow a structured routine and get up on time in the morning. The bus ride to his job at the school library in Belo Horizonte takes an hour and a half. One day, when everything goes wrong, he spends some time with his co-worker, Louisa. They turn out to have more in common than he’d thought.
