Synopsis
In 2016, the Brazilian government issues a decree that, in reparation for slavery, all Brazilians of noticeable or detectable African descent shall be deported to Africa. But, in order not to incur the crime of “home invasion”, they can only be captured on the street, resulting in humiliating tests and violent arrests of countless Brazilians. Thus, André and Antônio spend the day locked in the apartment, debating the social and economic issues of current life, their personal desires and the consequences of an imminent return to mother Africa.
