Filipe Duarte

This film is a biopic about António Variações, a famous 80s Portuguese pop-rock singer who died from AIDS-related complications in 1984.

In a Rio de Janeiro airport, a TAP stewardess kidnaps a two-month-old baby girl. Two years later, the distraught mother is living in Lisbon. In order to survive, she works in a "strip-tease" bar but spends most of her time in the airport hoping to find the stewardess who took her daughter. Then one night she is fired from her job and without money. She joins a gang of ex-security guards from the bar and stays in their hideout. She becomes involved with a series of bank robberies. Soon she is tracked by the police inspector who also seems to have something to hide.
