An ample immersion in the Afro-Brazilian universe through Soul music, from the emergence of the genre in the late 1960s and its popularity in the music industry, to its peak with the famous black balls in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. The film portrays the movement to promote black culture and the political struggle against racism at the time, as well as the music. Through the eyes of some of the great black intellectuals of the 1970s and today, such as Sueli Carneiro and Edneia Gonçalves, the film searches for the Brazilian "black soul" in the quilombos and soul parties.
