On a hot summer day, Paloma decides to fulfill her most cherished dream: a traditional wedding in a church with her boyfriend Zé. She is a hard-working farmhand on a papaya plantation and has been saving to afford the celebration. The priest’s refusal to accept her request will force Paloma to confront the rural society. She suffers violence, betrayal, prejudice, and injustice, but nothing shakes the faith and determination of this transgender woman.
